Ingram Posted February 20, 2005 Report Share Posted February 20, 2005 Hi, I recently bought some phillips 5.1 surround sound speakers and sound card. The speakers are recomended for this card anyway, Down to the problem. When i use the program change the settings of the speakers (equalizers, atomsphere and stuff) i go to the tes bit thre and it goes round all the speakers good, front left, yep comes out front left, centre yep comes ou tthe centre and so on. How ever when i use the speaker test in Counter-Strike: Source when it gets to "rear right" it plays out the front left as well and when it plays the rear left it plays it out the front right to :closedeyes: the front ones play on there own so why don't the back (Y) i chaged around the devices for the play back (before it was playing out every speaker when the individual ones was being played) but i chanmged the default device and got it to that what i explained above, Can slomeone help me out please i dont get how it works perfectly on the program but not on CS: Source, Thanks alot guys, apreciate it, Cheers.

biketrialler Posted February 20, 2005 Report Share Posted February 20, 2005 In CSS goto Options on the main menu. Then audio. Set speaker config to 5.1 and you should be sorted. Im guessing its currently working in standard 2 speaker mode and then the hardware itself is mixing this wrongly. If thats no help get back to me!

Ingram Posted February 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2005 nope its on 5.1 at the moment (Y) thanks for relpying ben :closedeyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biketrialler Posted February 20, 2005 Report Share Posted February 20, 2005 And it works properly in Windows however? (Sorry if youve said this in your original post but i found the way you worded everything really confusing!) Does 5.1 sound work fine in everything EXCEPT source!? Either way go to Control Panel -> Sounds & Audio Devices -> Advanced make sure the speaker settings dropdown says 5.1 speakers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
