That would mean the chip is fed 11.2896MHz clock. I do not see any
crystal on

. Is it the same card you have, with the crystal position empty? Are you
really sure they are not on power supply?

Did the patch work?

Did you test 192kHz and 176,4kHz? The receiver can work in two modes.
Either it knows it is fed an independent clock and detects the sample
rate precisely, or it simply reads the sample rate from SPDIF preamble
of the incoming stream. The mode is select by the XTL0,1 pins. Often the
streams do not contain correct information, especially for consumer mode
which does not have room for the larger samplerates code. Could you
please test both consumer and professional modes, all common samplerates?

Thanks,

Pavel.
