I use Shark Codec pack, I have bitstreaming dts-hd and TrueHD working fine BUT FFDshow is turning this into mono for some reason. Only comes out of the center channel speaker and when I scroll over FFDshow audio in taskbar it shows output as mono, here is an Printscreen

Where is the Printscreen?

You should disable Mixer in ffdshow Audio Decoder configuration (I don't know how to do so with Shark) and perhaps use ReClock if you care about the audio quality.

Its the picture in original post.
Doesn't reclock only help with the the speed of the video or something to take care of jitter and sync issues? Mixer is disabled in ffdshow.

Try LAV Splitter + LAV Audio Decoder. LPCM is often troublesome.

ReClock/WASAPI exclusive mode is a must if you want to get the correct channel count/sample rate/bit depth from LPCM by bypassing Windows Audio Engine. What is your audio device in PC?

you should read, and follow, THIS POST on the Shark007 forum to assist in setting up your audio properly without adding more codecs (LAV).
