ok,
if u try to play a 5.1 channel audio in 2.1 environment, it doesnt bloom.
other players take a default setting and play every audio in the same env.(it maybe 2,2.1,5.1,DTS 6) by tweaking with the channel list in vlc, u will find a quality that is finest.

it was first introduced in POWERDVD .

Sounds cool. But I don't need more than 2.0 channels.

Winamp is also a well-know freeware.

I don't think you need to do anything special. You just need to install both software in the system.
