    Multichannel FLAC is decoded multichannel audio it is not like DD/DTS which is a bitstream which is decoded on your amp. The only way to get multi-channel FLAC to work is to output audio as either LPCM via HDMI or use analogue outputs.

    That said I think the standard player will only output stereo anyway. To get multichannel I think you need to install the madFlac codec and set the music player to be directshow
