OT: seeking simple digital interface which can pass AC-3 _input_

Does anyone here have any recommendations for a simple s/pdif digital interface (USB or FW) that can accept a digital bitstream as input and *not* mess up the data? I have a MotU Traveler which I love but it specifically states that it will not pass AC-3/DTS data properly and I'm fine with that so I picked up an M-Audio Transit USB in the hopes that it would but it doesn't either. The sync header and some of the data make it through but liba52 gets CRC errors on every packet. I've verified that the same code works on a MacBook Pro with its built-in optical in. Maybe the Transit USB *should* work but I need to configure the device differently???

I've searched around but have yet to find anyone specifically claiming that digital bitstream input will work properly on their device. The built-in optical ins on the Macs all work but this is for an old PPC mini that doesn't have one.

Apologies for the off-topic post but figured some of the folks here probably know...

thanks,
stephen

P.S. I'm running the latest Transit USB driver (1.6.3 I think, downloaded it yesterday) on OS X 10.4.10. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
