Hi.
Ok. i have an onkyo 606 amp with 5.1 speakers. it is plugged in to my satellite via optical and it is plugged in to my PC via optical cable.
the PC has a C-Media CMI8768 sound card. I know it is low end but it is the best i could find with optical.
No when i play a sky premiere channel with the amp switched to TV logic the DTS and DD lightrs on the front of the amp come on and the sound is simply amazing! however when i grab something online that says it has AC3 or when i grab a HD preview for a movie etc the lights do not light up.
In VLC when i goto audio i have the option to choose 5.1 and this engages all the speakers but still no DTS or DD. I can use the amp to switch to Neo 6 channel or 5.1 and it works and sounds quite good but not as good as native 5.1 DTS.
Anyone know how to remedy this? thinking about getting a BR player for the HTPC but if i cant get it in to DTS then there is no point.
Ta
