following pages tell you which applications would best suit your needs.
Multimedia
Playback
Watching DVDs To enjoy the surround experience of Dolby Digital (5.1 channels) encoded DVD
movies, you must have a DVD-compatible drive and a set of speakers that support
up to six channels such as Creative Inspire 5.1 Analog Speakers. Dolby Digital
encoded DVD movies are best experierienced with software DVD players such as
InterVideo WinDVD 2000 or Cyberlink PowerDVD 3.0.
For the best audio quality, enable the SPDIF output from the software DVD player
so that the Dolby Digital signal is decoded by Sound Blaster Extigy and directed to
a high quality 5.1 speaker system such as the Creative Inspire 5.1 series.
Playing MP3, WMA
or AC3 files Creative PlayCenter supports and plays MP3,WMA and AC3 files.
Some software DVD
decoders/players cannot
decode up to 5.1 channels,
but can support SPDIF
output. In such cases,
enable the SPDIF output
function to allow Sound
Blaster Extigy to decode the
Dolby Digital signal.
