Hi, The order I get with my system (different soundcard, and telling xine to use plughw:1,0) is: 1) Left Front 2) Right Front 3) Left Rear 4) Right Rear 5) Center 6) LFE When playing through headphones with the RME card I mix 1/2 & 3/4 as stereo panned full left and right, and mix 5/6 at center. This sounds pretty much like my 6 speaker system in front of the TV. - Mark ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.
