To clarify I can listen to stereo on all my speakers if I upmix stereo into surround in the app itself.įor example in Winamp or Potplayer this is possible. Simply put: I lose the ability to listen to stereo music on all my speakers instead of just the front left and front right. My problem is if the app outputs stereo sound and my soundcard is configured in 5.1, then I woudl expect FxSOund to accept and forward such stream as stereo.įrom what I see somewhere in the path via FxSound stereo is lost, making unavailable the soundcard feature to expand the stereo into surround, since it already is (but not upmixed). It works correctly for every app that outputs surround sound via FxSound. I don’t have a problem with surround sound itself. Right now, unfortunately I cannot use FxSound, because this is a deal breaker. It seems that FxSound is upmixing the stereo track from the browser into 5.1 by simply playing the left and right of the stereo onto the left front and right front of the 5.1.Īnother possibility is that FxSound declares to the browser that stereo is not supported and gives it a 5.1 channel configuration, so the -try-supported-channel-layouts defaults to 5.1 and the SpeakerFill option cannot activate.Īny suggestion if this is fixable? Some workaround?īy the way a SpeakerFill option would be a great feature of FxSound by itself, so people don’t have to rely on drivers or other software. When using FxSound and giving it the Speakers (Realtek (R) Audio) device as output, the SpeakerFill no longer works. This works correctly as long as FxSound is not used, and the music plays on all speakers. This is because otherwise chromium outputs Youtube (or any other) stereo streams to the left front and right front channels of the available 5.1, leaving the audio empty on the others, and then Realtek SpeakerFill does not activate, since it works only when the detected stream is stereo. Using chrome/edge with command line parameter -try-supported-channel-layouts in order to make it output sound in (first available) stereo instead of the configured 5.1 BUG: wrong channel configuration disables Realtek SpeakerFill option
