Doom9's Forum - View Single Post - Windows 10 hardware for SPDIF capture of raw AC-3/E-AC-3 bitstreams?

XMOS based devices in theory should be able to record bitstream... (S/PDIF is implemented as software so no restrictions on bit level) not sure if some ready to use solution for Windows 10 exist. I would dig some XMOS related forums.

And as last resort you can always record S/PDIF trough logic analyzer (those simple/cheap USB logic analyzer like Saleae and his clones http://www.ebay.com/bhp/usb-logic-analyzer ) , later S/PDIF parser can be used https://github.com/pfrench42/saleae_spdif
Perhaps not the answer you expected but... IMHO at least you should give a chance (cheap and no issues with DRM).
