[mythtv-users] Problems with alsa & spdif & myth

[John Sturgeon]

I'm completely baffled.  Where is the noise/hum coming from?  This is a 
completely digital signal.  The amplifier does not touch the signal 
until it is decoded.  Any 'static', or 'noise' introduced by using a 
wire instead of fiber optics would *never* be heard by the amplifier 
because it is not an audio input.  The 1's and 0's either get there, or 
don't.  Sharp bass?  Not possible.
