No surround output

Postby Beer Hunter » Mon Dec 05, 2011 5:04 pm

Hi,

Not sure this is in the bug.... I may be doing something wrong myself! :oops:

When using the previous versions (I'm now using V1.7a) I used to get surround output. Now all I get is stereo - both on UK Freeview and Freeview HD.
Same problem when outputting to VLC on the same PC or streaming to another PC with VLC as the client.
Windows Media Center outputs 5.1 correctly on the same channels.

Here are the video settings (while playing BBC1 HD):

Can anyone offer any help?

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.
ffdshow does not seem to work at all (the dvb dream codec file states this) and AC3 filter only gives stereo too :(

Any other suggestions?
I'm having to use Windows Media Center and no one wants to do that! :D

better use intervideo audio codec for 5+1 sound, (download trial version of windvd for this, if it doesn't show up in the list , then search on google for intervideo codecs)
make sure you pick the AC3 pid as audio pid in DVB Dream (CTRL+P)
You might need to try other Audio Renderer options if there is any (through the window you posted)
DVB Dream - because I have to dream about having time to code it

in ac3 filter you need to set speakers to 5.1 or whatever your speakers are, then you will have sourround.
