I am interested in purchasing a ASRock Z97E-ITX/ac for my next HTPC built.

I need to know if the board will allow bitstream (DTS-HD, Dolby Master..etc.) to passthrough the HDMI connector. I don't care about the SPDIF or the analog 3.5mm... I only care if it will do via HDMI.

Since I emailed technical support the same question 3 days ago, and no reply. I hope to get an answer here on the forum.

There's a separate htpc forum.

And from what I understand about the HDMI standard, it should support that. But I'm no pro on the topic.
