Re: Re: Should I re-rip all my movies??!!



One problem with the Acer Revo is that the HDMI output is 2 channel
only (due to a hardware restiction i believe) and with Win7 you can only
output audio to one output, so you can't do HDMI and optical at the same
time. ATV2 allow full digital audio to both the HDMI and optical.
