So my sound card supports 7.1, and all speakers output the correct sounds in both the driver software and windows sound configuration screen, but I pop in 5.1 content in VLC and WMC and everything still outputs as Stereo. I'm fairly sure that Sharknado supports Dolby Digital 5.1 as it says it on the back side of the CD case. I'm running Windows 8.1 Pro, but I'm not sure what other things could be causing this.



None.

Your video player set to 5.1 playback?

Does your soundcard menu have a speaker test? Does that work correctly?

Yes, all media players are set to 5.1 playback. Both the sound card sound check and the Windows sound check output the sounds in their correct locations.



None.

Depending on the player, you may need to check settings for individual decoders as well.

NimoStar -- If its any consolation, the human brain would still mop the floor with this bot if it wasn't limited by the mechanical interface

NimoStar -- Well. The bot didn't come up with any new strategy. It just has superhuman micro. Hard to beat that. I reckon even the simplest dedicated chess engines are unbeatable for humans now.

NimoStar shouted: They were not "Unprepared" that was their fifth loss in a row against the bot. The other replays are also available
that doesn't mean he was prepared. When humans come around with new strategies it often takes weeks until the pros figure out how to shut it down. Oh_Man that's certainly a way more convincing argument for micro being "too good to beat".
