Many thanks for this; I acquired a PCI CMI8768 and this morning wrote a
program which successfully extracted the raw S/PDIF stream.
For interest, I've successfully decoded the PCM audio from the stream. But
thinking it may be impossible to form track markers from the rest of the
data. Unlike a CD player, the source (a Pioneer MiniDisc machine) appears
to output digital silence even when not playing, and so far I can't seem
to see anything useful in the metadata.
Thanks again
Is there anything useful at
