Hello, this is my first post on here as I like to find out the solutions myself but I have been unsuccessful so far, ive got a motherboard with 6 analog outputs for surround sound through 3.5mm cables and it has also got an optical output my receiver only has a single aux 3.5mm input so i could only ever reproduce stereo sound that way but it does have an optical input and its dolby digital compatible, however on realtek hd audio i can only play outputs up to 2 channels and whenever I change to dolby interactive it doesnt play any sound although the speaker icon shows the green bar moving as if it was playing the sound, I understand there is a dolby live option which i dont have in my realtek program which might work. I suspect my receiver doesnt support dolby interactive but might support live either way i cant find out as the only option i found to get that was installing hacked realtek drivers and that didnt work either as i didnt get the option and i kept getting BSOD. I want to get this going as it seems a waste to have a surround sound system when i can only use stereo on it.
Sorry if there is already a thread on this but i couldnt find one.
Thank you
Alex
