Title: 5.1 Sound Without Hdtv

says that digital sound works with S-video. But I don't know how your cable is doing the mode selection.

You might want to look up this as well: http://forums.xbox-s...&...t&p=1488420.

Basically the idea is to use the correct mode to get surround sound and S-Video output.

well the symbols on the cable is
mode 1: Component active
mode 2: S-video rgb activated

I think its pretty strange my S-video gets signal in both mode just not all the colors when using component.
i had hope that there was a way to force the setting in xbmc choose digital output instead of analog.
