Computer has a RME-Audio Hammerfall (9652) Digital I/O card.


The input labeled XIN is not used at this point. I am not sure what I
will use it for.
I want to use it for connecting the computer output so that MP3s can be
played
alternately with CDs but I haven't set that up yet. I am in the process
of separating
the computer into 2 computers. That way I will not be screwed by
SoundBlaster drivers.
SBLive card I have in the computer also likes to mess up the multimedia
settings so
that some programs ( Windows MediaPlayer) can drive the hammerfall , but
others
(RealPlayer) can not. So I am hoping that this problem will get resolved
when I 
get rid of the SBLive card(The Worst piece of h/w I ever bought....)
