Hello!
Does anyone know of a utility or terminal command to display the data format coming in via the optical digital audio input of a Mac? I'm running Yosemite on a Mac Mini, if it makes a difference.
While the Mini is primarily intended as an audio server, I do have my Panasonic Plasma hooked up to the digital input, and I suspect that the max-volume, high-speed buzzing that I get through the Mac when playing certain material might be Dolby Digital content instead of 2-channel PCM. I'd like to confirm that. (For the life of me, I can't find a setting that forces the Panasonic to down-mix to 2-channel.)
Thanks!
