In order for any TrueHD or DTS-HD signal to be used, all checkpoints in the path( including the cable), must meet the (minimum) full HDMI 1.3a standard which forces HDCP. This is the only reason that no sound cards to date (even the highest-end 7.1) have been capable of these standards. The standard does not allow for THD/ DTS-HD over any other media (optical, coax, component), because then you could (illegally, sic) steal the signal.
