Hello,
I have a hardware decoder card. The problem with the card is that I can not get the sound to play through all speakers. It is the Sigma designs Holywood Plus with the EM8300 chipset. The Holywood Plus card has a line-out output, a coaxial-out to connect an external decoder, a TV-out, VGA-out and VGA-IN connectors. I have the Cambridge Soundworks DTT 2500 that include a external decoder, but they are connected to my PS2 and I have it in another room and I don't want to spend on another speakers. I have the Cambridge Soundworks DTT 2200 on my computers, these speakers don't have an external decoder. My sound card is a SB live mp3+ 5.1, it has a digital-out (not AC-3 like the one from my decoder card).
Any help with what type of connections I need to make will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for the replies.

From what I've read, the Hollywood+ card is the best at what it does. To hear your audio via the card, you'll need a small 1/8" phono cable from the line out of the decoder card to the line in of your SB Live! I don't think the line out of the Hollywood+ is digital but rather component, so you should be all set.
