OK I don't necessarily want or need the quality. What I am trying to acheive is capturing audio without having to use a sound card to sample. Rather I want the capture card to do it for me i.e. btaudio. I am using the capture card in a MythTV system (www.mythtv.org - you've probably heard of it). It would sound as though I can still connect up the analogue audio to the BT878 though if it isn't already (and doesn't appear to be either) Christian
