Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

Hello Everyone,

I have dolphin configured to a 9.1.5 surround sound system using dolby atmos for home theaters. I have dolphin setup to use cubeb lle and dolby pro logic decoder 2 on as well. I have also went into my wii menu to enable surround sound. For some reason my rear speakers are not working properly. they seem very weak if they make any sound at all. Other apps I have tested do not have this issue. Is there a way to configure dolphin so it is using my rear speakers properly instead of just my front soundbar when dolby atmos is enabled? When I disable dolby atmos all of my speakers are used, but they all play the same sounds.

Thank you for your help!

I figured it out. I needed to configure it as a 5.1 surround sound setup with rear instead of side speakers. I was using 7.1 before. if anyone else runs into this you need to go into "change system sound settings" right click on your home theater system or television, and press configure speakers to choose the setup you want to use. For dolphin its a 5.1 with rears. for everything else you can use dolby atmos, dts:x, or 7.1.
