RE: OT: Coaxial to optical converters

None.
I have the Xbox in the lounge connected to a CO2 Optical to digital
converter, feeding through to node 0 where the amp is.
The amp has loads of optical inputs but only one coaxial (on the CD input).
ATM, I have to choose the LD input (which has an optical in and LD RF in) to
get the picture, then switch to the CD input to get the sound (the amp
retains the last video input when you switch to an audio only source).
This is fine, and yes I _could_ have a pronto macro to do my switching, but
it means the Audiotron (on the CD input) cannot be used at the same time in
another room (it feeds the lounge amp and a multiroom system).

If I convert the Xbox audio back to optical then I can use the LD input for
sound and vision.
