[MPlayer-users] audio... more than 2 speakers..

[gabor]

hi,


i've just got a sb-live ( after a sb128pci ), so now i enjoy that i can
watch 6 movies at the same time with sound :-))))

i understand that if a video contains ac3 audio, then it's somehow
transformed into 2channel audio for the sound cards..

and that you can somehow play back ac3 audio... 
but what i wanted to ask is this:

sb-live supports a mode with 4 speakers ( 2 rear, 2 back )...

is mplayer able to use thos 4 speakers?

i've heard that on windows, powerdvd-player for example is able to
transform ac3 audio into something playable with 4 speakers...

thanks,
gabor
