Audigy 5.1 surround and best DVD player

covana2244 · Jan 20, 2005

I have sound in from my card but I don't think it is 5.1. How do I setup 5.1 surround sound?
Also what is a really good dvd player for linux?
Thirdly, what is a really easy to use sound mixer to set the volumes of the 5.1 surround speakers?

anyone?
I think I got the sound working, now what a really good sound mixer application??

sound mixer? the stuff built into the drivers... the sound center or whatever.... is decent, but not great. try winamp, or any of a slew of other programs out there, that with a few plugins, can do nearly anything you need them to.

I think you're a bit confused with Windows there. If you're using KDE as the desktop kmix will do what you need. The there is alsamixer and amix which run from a console, At least one of the three is probably is install. As for the DVD player I like Xine. There is also mplayer and kaffeine.

My preference for DVDs is Ogle, with the gui-frontend Goggles. Just like the way it works. Seemed to me more like the PowerDVD I was used to from Windows.
