I connect my PC to my amp over HDMI passthrough on the ATI video card. My amp is not capable of decoding EAC3, only AC3 and other standard 5.1 formats. When a TV3 program transmits in EAC3 it confuses the crap out of my amp. Is there a way to have the PC decode this to AC3 or any recognisable 5.1 format for my amp?
