EII DPX --> EII SD native is indeed very easy to program. You just need the decoding algorithm for the sound part, and some EII addressing scheme knowledge :-) Since I have those specs here, maybe if I find some time in between my other activities, I'll make this little program for you. It will only take a few hours to program, and I can add it to the DPXTOOLS package (not to EMXP, that will take more than a few hours :-) I just have to find a timeslot of a few hours...
