[mythtv-users] advice on sound card S/PDIF

[Ste Pucc]

Ciao Nicola,

I have bought following PCI sound card for my MythTV FE/BE:
Terratec Aureon 5.1 PCI Bulk

<http://www.bow.it/Schede_Audio/11534/Terratec_Aureon_5.1_PCI_Bulk.html>it's
cheap, it works in a second with linux and with Mythtv, and it's easy to
find it in some online italian site.

ciao,
Ste
