maclaw Posted November 9, 2001 Share Posted November 9, 2001 About to get Santa Cruz, I'm just wondering wether anybody know what's the surround mode I can get when connecting santa cruz with promedia 4.1 I know 4speaker modes works with the same sound all front and rear sats. Can I use the virtual 5.1 mode? will it work suppose if I play a DVD movies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justin_tx_16 Posted November 9, 2001 Share Posted November 9, 2001 i do not think that you need to do the virtual 5.1 because the "phantom" center that the 4.1's create when placed correctly. ------------------ -justin I am an amateur, if it is professional help you want email Amy or call her toll free @ 1-888-554-5665 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnewhous Posted November 10, 2001 Share Posted November 10, 2001 The only reason to use Virtual 5.1 is to generate 5.1 channels of output from a stereo source. It's very simple: the rear outputs are copies of the front, the center is a combined copy of the front L/R and the subwoofer is a combined copy of the fiver other channels. Virtual = not real = fake = crap If you have PowerDVD or WinDVD you can decode DD to 4 channels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBvader Posted November 11, 2001 Share Posted November 11, 2001 no, that is not true...you can decode up to 7 channels with the new powerDVD, as it has the ability t decode PL2 ------------------ LAKERS SEASON BEGINS! are you fools ready to be dominated?
