DVICO DVB-T 5.1 surround sound help (1 Viewer)

Hi. Just wondering if anyone can help me with getting my DVICO DVB-T tuner card audio functions. I can get the audio to come out of all my 5.1 surround speakers when using the dvico software. When I try to use it in MP I only get 2 channel sound. I have tried all different audio codecs but with no luck.

Use the standard MPA audio codec that comes with MP.
Make sure under media portal setup program you have set to from stereo to 3 front 2 rear.
Under settings goto directshow filter control
on the right of the screen set ac3 and dts decoder setting to 5.1
I also have downmix to stereo unticked not sure if that is needed

Hope that helps.
Not all shows are simulcast in surround sound also.
