My SpDIF (Realtek Digital Output) only outputs stereo content even when playing DVD's. My receiver shows receiving 5,1 and 6.1 but only the stereo speakers and the subwoofer have sound. When I test "supported formats" dts and dolby only the SW and front speakers play sounds but the receiver shows 5.1 input. I know the speakers work because I hooked them up to analog and the receiver test went fine.
I Have MSI X58 Platinum MB with Realtek on-board and latest driver 2.14 from realtek site. In properties I only have an option for 2 channel output. Shouldn't there be options for 6 channel and 8 channel output? Using Vista Ultimate X64 for gaming and home theater and stereo just doesn't cut it. No problems in XP with older system.
How can I get multichannel SPDIF? thanks for listening.
