Hi all,

I have my tv and amplifier connected separately with a din/headphone jack to the back panel of my system.
That way I get sound through both of them and I don't need to switch the amplifier on.
Before, I was able to reconfig the jacks so that I got 2 simultaneous audio streams but somehow that doesn't work anymore with my new setup.
I tried different driver versions with their enclosed control panels but no luck.
Only by using the front panel jack I get what I want but of course that's not really an option.

It doesn't make any difference if I disconnect the front panel feed from the mobo.

Anyone that has an idea why it is like that?

Thanks in advance!

If you are happy using FFDShow audio decoder as a post-processor, you can use it's output mixer to duplicate a stereo input to two (or three) stereo outputs (2 or 3 jacks).

To use it as a post-processing filter, enable the 'uncompressed' formats in the FFDShow 'codecs' section, add it as a post-processor in MP TV/Video/DVD etc, then setup the FFDShow mixer matrix - tick the 'custom matrix' and 'LFE' boxes, select 6 channels as the speaker config, then put '1's in the matrix to 'connect' the inputs (across the top) to the outputs (down the side) - the attached image should give you the idea (this should map stereo L/R -> 3 x stereo out, using the front/rear/C+LFE jacks).
