Dolby Digital 5.1 with SBLive! Player 5.1

[Ralle]

Hi

I just bought a new PC with a SBLive! Player 5.1. I thought working together with my speakers (Cambridge Desktop Theatre 2500) also 5.1 speakers I should hear AMAZING Dolby Digital. So I connected the soudcard with a SPECIAL Digital-Din Cable especcially for Dolby Digital 5.1 to the speakers and... nothing just analog input. I was shocked and so I searched the Internet for a reason. I found one. This Sound card cannot decode Dolby 5.1 just, how to say (German), pull the Signal through the DSP. I read that the decodin has to be done by an external program like Power DVD 3.0. But I don't want to listen to my MP3 with Power DVD.

And now, finally the question: Is there any plugin for Winamp that can decode to real Dolby Digital 5.1 ??

And don't say anything like, "but mp3 just has two channels". Yes I know but I once listened to an MP2 File I converted for my DXR3 DVD Decoder card and these two channels really souded fantastic and it was Dolby Digital 5.1

Please help me

don't use the directsound plug-in and see what happens

i think thats only 2 speaker compatable also what sound card do you have??

their might be a variable to play everything in 5.1 you need to play around a bit coz winamp won't play with your DXR3 card.

there's a variable to play 4.1 on my sb live in the liveware stuff their should be also for your 5.1

He, stay cool.

I'm no asshole.

And, very interesting what you said but how can I activate this option on my SB Live! ??

And do I really hear 5.1 Sound better said Dolby Digital with the Sound System.

Please answer - Asshole!!!!!

Or do you mean this simple option to switch between Headphone, 4 Speaker etc.??
Setting it to 5.1 doesn't really help.
If you mean anything else please say so
