[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1224830, member: 82144"] Everything you're describing is 100% normal and expected. Unless you do something out of the ordinary, if you set the Windows speaker config to 5.1/surround and then try to play any video or audio that doesn't have surround audio and cannot be bitstreamed, the amp will receive surround audio where 2 channels contain audio and the other 4 (if 5.1 surround) or 6 (if 7.1 surround) contain silence. The receiver is dumb. It doesn't/can't apply pro-logic to such streams because it thinks it's already receiving surround audio and doesn't realise that it's actually stereo with 4 or 6 silent channels. If you want to solve this expect that: [LIST=1] [*]You'll possibly need to apply upmixing (ie. pro logic or whatever) on your PC. [*]You'll need to provide log files so we can see the full technical details of the exact scenario you're dealing with. [*]You'll need to provide screenshots of your audio codec (eg. LAV) settings.
