[QUOTE="BKCH, post: 260087, member: 13992"] Hi - Thanks for this great post. I'm struggling with getting 5.1 working from my MP to my Yamaha AMP - the connection I'm using is optical SPIDF and it works great for stereo and when I use SPIDF pass through I get full 5.1 sound but I can't get 5.1 working for other content - in the sound settings of windows I have 5.1 sellected and when I click on the front left and right speakers it works but all other speakers don't work. I've applied the hotfix (KB888111) - I didn't know about that before so I had great hopes for it but it didn't seem to make any difference... I've also tried various different drivers etc... Anyone got any ideas? This doing my head in :) (BTW I know it's not hardware because the same set up in Vista worked.). [/QUOTE]
