Yep. It's by Insignia. Takes the Digital head and turns it white and red (rca I think) or visa versa. Best Buy sells it for dirt cheap.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.if your receiver has optical out, you are better off buying an optical audio cable which carries full surround from your receiver to your amplifier.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I believe you have an optical interface there, which requires you use an optical cable. I believe that your current cable is electronic coax, not optical. You might still be able to plug your amplifier digital sound system into the headphone connector on your Direct TV box, but that won't give you the full sound fidelity that your new receiver is capable of delivering. (This advice is based on my experience with my new Xfinity box, don't know if it really applies to what you have there with Direct TV, but I suspect it does.)
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Best answer I can give is you need to go back to using analog (white and red connectors) connections between the DirecTV and your audio receiver. Nothing I know of (that's not a professional audio device) converts analog to digital for this purpose.
