4-channel downmix don´t work
Hi
I´m using the Cinemaster SW player and I can´t get the 4-channel downmix to work.
Soundcard is a Guillemot Fortissimo XL. It´s based on the Yamaha 744 chipset and is basicly the same card as the Aopen 744-series and the Hoontech Digital XG-series, (4 channels plus optical SPDIF out).
Graphics is a Matrox G400Max in a 440BX-system running Win98SE, DirectX8.1 and PowerDesk 5.55.
The soundcard came bundeled with PowerDVD 2.5 and with that player, 4-channel downmix sounds great! However, picture on TV looks terrible...
So, I made a fresh install of Win98SE, drivers and other SW I use, but can´t get Cinemaster to downmix into 4 channels.
In Windows Media Player I opened the DVD, then:
- File->Properties
- selected the Advanced tab
- selected Software Cinemaster DVD entry and clicked Properties button
- selected Audio tab in the new dialog box
- selected Decode and downmix to 4 channels (other options are Stereo, 3 channels and Dolby Pro Logic)
I previuosly used DVD Genie, but with no success.
Cinemaster version reads out as "DVD filter": 1.2.00.0063 and "DVD Decoding version": 2.0.36.6145
What do I need to do to get 4-channel downmix?
thank you
