Discreet Surround Channels on the timeline
I rendered an AC-3 file in Vegas with discreet channel audio. I can hear the audio when I play it back on my computer DVD player with all channels (L-C-R-SR-SL).
In Vegas I have all my channels on separate tracks on the timeline. I can panned the audio to all discreet channels. I can hear it on the L-C-R speakers discreetly. But I don’t hear it on the rear surround channels. I have a Sony 6.1 receiver hooked up to a Creative Labs Audigy 2Z card utilizing SPDIF coax cable. Will Vegas spit out on the timeline AC-3 audio or does it need to be rendered out to hear the encoded signal? Maybe Vegas only sends out a PCM audio from the timeline? Any ideas why I can’t hear the rear surround channels on the timeline?
