XBMC (Home Theater PC Front End)
I've noticed that when I play my MKV files (5.1 source audio) in something like VLC or Mediaplayer Classic I get the full 5.1, however through XBMC sends a dolby surround (2.0 psuedo surround) via the analog and not the true 5.1 signal. Any ideas why?
In other words (hard to explain)...all 6 speakers are playing audio but the rear channels aren't getting a discrete audio signal but rather a sampling of the front two.
Windows XP Pro SP3
Auzen Xi-Fi via analog outputs
Everything off in the control panel
Thoughts?
