Default Multi-Channel "Multimedia audio" for Windows

If the Satellite has a multichannel driver, it's not dead. A mixer is not
the critical issue. BTW, I was just looking at http://ac3filter.net/ . They
advertise an upmix to multi function.


Mackie has finally spoken. The current version of the WDM driver has
only two outputs. It looks like ac3filter can work sort of as a patchbay
and make the two channels coming come out any of the six outputs, but
only if the Windows driver knows that those other four outputs are present.

But the easiest way would simply be to buy a modern package like Nero, and
let it do all the work.


It seems that what he wants to do is play MP3 files, not DVDs. He just
wants to hear something coming out of the rear speakers. I dunno, maybe
they're in another room.
