Hi,
So i purchased a audio video receiver today in hope that i can get my HTPC to utilize 5.1 as my TV didn't support it on HDMI Pass-through to my old Z5500 speakers connected through optical. however, the pc doesn't detect that it supports 5.1.
if any one could assist me with this, that would be good.
Receiver: Sherwood RD-6506
HTPC: Asus K53SV Laptop
OS: Windows 10 Pro

Do you have a SPDIF port? remember if you are playing ripped movies, they may not have been ripped in 5.1

You can use Kodi to select 5.1 audio.
