MJ only plays on 2 speakers on my SB
« on: October 02, 2002, 12:18:47 pm »

Hi,

MJ only plays on 2 speakers via my Sound Blaster. When I play the same MP3 via Windows Media Player, 4 speakers are activated.

Paul.

No, I've downloaded the latest drivers from Creative and installed them.

The 'test' from Creative show all my speakers are hooked up correctly and working as they should.

I've tried altering several settings of MJ (including 'direct sound') but no change what so ever.

I have SB Live With 5.1 Suround Sound, And Windows XP

It Works Fine For Me, You Need To Go And Configure Windows Sound Control Panel To 5.1 Suround Sound Or What Ever You Have.

Just downloaded and reinstalled the latest drivers from Creative. Everything works fine now. I don't understand how, but somehow my installation got damaged.

No problems with MJ after all, sorry about that!
