No, we are still in a feature freeze http://trac.xbmc.org/roadmap
- GooglieS - 2008-10-05
You mean that we need to wait that feature for about a year?
- Freddo - 2008-10-05
Nah the feature freeze will end when Atlantis is released, sometime this month (if everything goes according to the schedule)
- sylvio2000 - 2008-10-09
But the problem is that the roadmap for the next version of xbmc does not show anything regarding 5.1 analogue output
- Freddo - 2008-10-09
I think the feature request for 5.1 analog out is tagged for 9.04 though if you look it up.
- sylvio2000 - 2008-10-09
That could be possible, but I cant find anything on the roadmap
I hope this will be integrated some day

Any news on this, Is it going to fixed soon, I have a high end sound card (LynxTWO-B) doing a very nice job at 5.1 analog would be a shame not to use it.

One thing I found working, for Windows, is if you have an X-Fi soundcard and use the internal Dolby and DTS decoders.
You can set XBMC to output digitally, that gets intercepted by the X-Fi that decodes the stream and outputs it correctly on the 6 analogue outs.

Can we make the same thing in Linux? Any one knows?
[WINDOWS] 5.1 surround sound with analog output in XBMC for Windows? - Dannydeman - 2009-01-20
Is this already working in the latest SVN('ns)?
The last thing I heard is that you can enable it in some XML file, but the output would be mixed up (so you hear the left from behind etc).
- Freddo - 2009-01-20
Yeah the channel mapping is still off on windows, except oddly for 6channel FLAC output which is perfect? but I think that's actually a bug (please no-one fix it lol) because 6channel FLAC also isn't correctly downmixed to stereo.
