[FAQ]

Answer:
Yes, the Xonar U1 driver package does support Windows Vista and most key 
features are available.
Q2: Why does the Xonar U1 support Dolby technologies?
Answer:
Dolby is the ONLY brand and technologies recognized by the CE industry and 
available on a wide range of audio equipment. Xonar includes these features to 
make your PC a powerful media and entertainment center.
Q3: Why do I need Dolby for PC games?
Answer:
1. 
Dolby Digital and Pro-Logic IIx are available on the latest game consoles, 
like XBOX360, PS3, and Wii. Dolby can provide the best gaming sound 
experience and compatibility with home theater or TV systems.
2. 
Dolby Headphone and Dolby Virtual Speaker are the best 3D sound 
positioning, spatial modeling and 5.1-channel virtualization technology for 
regular stereo headphones and speakers.
Q4: Will PCM sound output through S/PDIF be just 2 channels even with    
       different analog output channels?
Answer:
The S/PDIF protocol specification (IEC-60958) can only carry 2-channel PCM 
data or non-PCM AC3/DTS data. So, when a user selects PCM output for S/PDIF, 
the Xonar U1 will always deliver 2 channel PCM data through the S/PDIF output 
port. For attaining 5.1 channel surround sounds, you can select Dolby Digital 
Live encoding output from the S/PDIF out menu, which will allow the Xonar U1 to 
deliver 5.1 surround sound for games, DVD movies, and even stereo music.
