Swapping Channels

floppydisc · Nov 11, 2004, 02:50 PM

Hi,

I've searched through this forum but could not found an answer to my "problem". I have a 5.1 setup with a SoundBlaster Live! Player 5.1
When I sit in front of my PC, FrontLeft, FrontRight, RearLeft, ReadRight and center are all in the right position - so the surround sound works. But if I sit in front of my TV to listen to DVD (over SVHS linked from my computer) I would have to toss all the speakers over (i.e. FrontLeft with RearLeft, FrontRight with FrontLeft etc.) As the signals are processed by the computer (and I guess by the drivers), there has to be a way to swap them on software basis - one click and I have the constellation that I want.
Any ideas how I can do this?

Maybe you could re-route the external input (you're inputing the DVD-audio from external source right?) and swap the channels using the DSP?.. I'm not really good at this stuff.. so that's just my suggestion..
