RE: Digital Audio

[Mark Harrison]

I'd be interested in piping in the digital domain in the longer term,
but not yet (only got one decoder!) , and not without some kind of
splitter....

Subject: Re: [KAT5] Digital Audio


The current range of modules cant send digital audio but a digital
version is planned. I havent prototyped one yet (partly due to not
having any digital kit until last year) but will do once the switcher
is finished.

How many people are interested in distributing digital audio ?
