    Does anybody know of a Sat Receiver with a co-ax or optical digital out? And does Sky broadcast any movies in Dolby 5.1?

    I've just moved to Dublin and am planning on getting Sky Digital but none of the retailers I have asked seem to know the answers to these questions...

    Any help appreciated-

    The only digibox with optical audio at at present is the sony box (which nobody stocks in dublin).

    Nothing but pro logic broadcast on sky at present. There are reports that the next generation digiboxes (due out this summer?) will support dolby digital, as well as having multiple LNB's and allowing recording of one channel while viewing another.

    We have tried without success to get the Sony box. The only other reciver with digital out is the echostar 3000ip but unfortunately this does not support sky digital.
