3 mirrored stereo pairs from my 5.1 sound card with winamp?

**booksix** · 05-09-2012, 12:58 PM

I have an Intel D945GCLF2 with built in 5.1 audio. I am going to be using winamp 2.95 for my audio player and have been trying to get the 5.1 outs to function as 3 stereo pairs to drive one four channel amp and one stereo/mono (idk yet, but not really relevant either) sub amp when playing 2 channel content from winamp. Also, I am running XP. I haven't been able to find the information I need.... can anyone help me with this? Thanks!

btw, sorry if this is not in the best sub-forum, I just figured it would be a software thing.

Hi
Havnt really played with this yet but pretty sure you can do it via the codec filters ..
If you have cccp http://www.cccp-project.net/ or K-lite full http://www.free-codecs.com/download/...Codec_Pack.htm (only ones Ive used)
You can configure the FFDshow audio filter and how it outputs to your sound card. Pretty sure there is a winamp2 section in the mixer settings as well
but as I said havnt looked into it so not 100% sure it will do what you want...only other way is setup the sound to output to 2.1 an split the left right with a Y cable

I'll look into these. And I don't want to use splitters. Avoiding splitters is why I'm going with a carputer over a much simpler, "no-headunit + iPod with passive volume controls and splitters to the amps" system. Thanks for the suggestion though!
