Hey all, first post, so take it easy please
I also have so say I know almost nothing about setting this stuff up, or how it works, thats probably why I cant figure this out.
At the moment, I'm outputting my audio to a receiver via spdif. I get the correct content detected and it all plays fine (DD, pro logic, whatever). When connected like this though, I cant set my receiver to any other 'modes'. for example, when listening to music, I would like to enable the 6 channel stereo mode, or one of the 'fake' surround modes when watching stereo movies, but nothing is available. My receiver just says 'straight' on the display.
I have set about every possible combination of settings in ac3filter and ffdshow (cccp config tool), with no joy.
My receiver is a Yamaha 559DAB ( I think ), if that helps at all.
Anyhows, please give any advice you might have, I would really like to get this resolved, but I just dont know what to try next.
Thanks
Craig
