I was loving every second of it until i ran into this 5.1 problem. After 7 years of running XP i had to format my computer and decided to run W7. It is a bit complicated and hit'n'miss with all the options now when it looks like this:Īre we still making that list of ppl who created an account just to say thanks?

It's mostly player settings problem, you have to tell him somewhere that you have S/PDIF or optic output and that's it, leave drivers in stereo and it should work. Your example file with ac3 (which is Dolby Digital) should work with standard driver, if everything is set up right, it has worked like that for decades now. Maybe with analog connects to amplifier and speakers without advanced electronics inside.

This seems useless to be used on PC this way, but that's just me.

But that is something your receiver can do too, both with Dolby Pro Logic and DTS Neo decoders built in. To create surround from stereo in your PC you have DTS Neo: PC (and SRS and some other ways of sound virtualisation) and then part two would be to let DTS Interactive encode it into DTS stream for your receiver (or Dolby Digital Live instead). But then again, that is an option almost any receiver has built in, with all those "soundfields" and simulations. You could use some kind of plugin in your music player to copy stereo channels to back channels, so than sound chip encodes it into something an AV receiver should recognize and you get a quasi quad sound. Or maybe mkv files with sound encoded into 5.1 aac, which is not recognized by most AV receivers, but you can use for example XBMC aka Kodi to play it and it will re-encode it back to Dolby Digital on-the-fly, no need to mess with drivers and settings, everything autoĭon't know what else could be used for really. This feature is mainly used for games, and sometimes for surround music, most probably 5.1 flac or 5.1 DTS Music Disc. They don't create surround, they are just a way to get non-standard surround audio (which really means something that isn't DVD standard - wiki link) to the recever via S/PDIF, so your source has to be multichannel. It works! And I can listen to all kinds of 5.1 music via s/pdif connected to AV receiver and surround!Įdit: yeah, on Gigabyte GA-MA970A-UD3 with Realtek 889 chipĪnother problem is that you expect something different from DD Live or DTS Interactive. Which is a bit annoying to turn on and off. But it is available in control panel > sound > realtek digital out (properties) > advanced Doesn't bother me much, but it would be nice if that could be removed.Īlso, in Realtek control panel in Windows 7 it was nice and easy to change settings, because it looked like this: Which leaves that watermark in the bottom right corner. after few tries this is what I discovered:įirst you need to this: and when when everything is right with signing that sys file, in my case it wouldn't work without running in test mode all the time.

On Windows 7 it was a bit easier to make everything work, and in Windows 8.1 well. They said I would hear from them within two business days.Hello, I just registered to say thank you for making this work. I'm hoping to get an answer soon, if I do I will post it here.

That is a Copy/Paste that I sent to the actual manufacturers of the DVD. I am deploying to Afghanistan for a year this weekend and it is critical for me that I get this problem solved very soon.

I am very upset about this issue because SinCity is my favorite movie and I really wanted to see it, which is why I paid 35 dollars for the DVD, and unfortunately I have yet to see the Recut, Extended, Unrated version. It's not just that player either, I have also tried Windows Media Player, QuickTime, Real Player, and iTunes. I even paid to download the newest version of Dell Media Experience. There are no options that would make a difference in this issue, i tried everything. Speaker configuration (2 speakers or headphones)Īudio listening mode (stereo or dolby surround)ĭynamic range compression (Normal environment, noisy environment, or quiet environment)


I went to the Audio option setting menu and the only options to change were as follows: All of my other DVDs work perfectly with all of the settings unchanged.

Please change your Audio option setting on the DVD Settings page." Then it continues to play without any sound. When I try to play my DVD it says, "The DTS audio format is not supported by your current audio settings.
