Hello All

I am a new and happy owner of JRiver. But have the following problem. I have a few multichannel flacs and when I try to play them it asks me to turn on the dsp studio and downmix to 2channel. I have my laptop setup to output JRiver through HDMI to my Onkyo TXSR-705 using Wasapi Event Style.

I tried with mediamonkey free version and I get multichannel out just fine. I get the notification from my Onkyo TX-SR 705 that it is receiving MultiCh Audio and when I check each speaker there is sound coming from them. They are not playing silent as with VLC media player (I have VLC setup with DirectSound so it was not bypassing Windows' mixer).

This leaves me to think that it might be something with a JRiver setup.

I included some pics for reference

This is the AVR setup in windows:




This is the setup in JRiver







And this is the message I get when I try to play a multichannel file



If anyone has any ideas please let me know.   ?

Thanks fitbrit!

But now I have a different issue regarding multichannel downmixed to 2ch  ? .... I'm having a problem playing back a Quad Vinyl Rip album. All other MultiCh files play OK (they sound awesome now), but this album which technically is multichannel (4.0) does not play. Don't know if JRiver has support for it, but I don't see why not. I also tried with the different buffer sizes just in case. Again, I tried with MediaMonkey and it played fine trough the fronts and surrounds (not the center). Everything else in JRiver is the same. If you need anymore info or pictures of other settings in JRiver let me know.

Thanks again all!
