    Hello,

    I have 5.1 speakers, I can't seem to use all five speakers when I play videos that supports 5.1 I'm currently using GOM player and my center speaker won't work. When I do a sound test with c-Media program, all the speakers are functional. I heard that I need to get a some kind of plugin in order for my fully 5.1, what programs do I need? I downloaded AC3, but now all the sound echoes. Please help!

    Well it seems like your 5.1 speaker system is working fine, I don't know about the media player you're using but have you tried something else like Winamp, VLC, WMP etc. do they recognize your 5.1 sound system?
