I'm looking into getting the Intensity Pro to record Xbox 360 and PS3 gameplay. That seems pretty simple and straight-forward. However, in order for me to hear 5.1 sound in my headset while playing and recording, I need to use a TOSLINK connection that runs to my headset's receiver.
From my understanding, the Intensity Pro can output S/PDIF audio. If that's true, I can record both video and audio over HDMI, then use the S/PDIF output back to my headset. My only concern would then be lag. Is there any known lag from input to output on the card?
Also, is the Intensity Pro's S/PDIF output stereo, or 5.1? I see the Intensity Pro's specs say 2 channel output for S/PDIF, which is usually standard along with compressed 5.1, but can it output compressed 5.1? Or would I be better off getting the Shuttle instead and then use a converter for the HDMI audio out to optical?
Thanks for reading.
