Im thinking of getting a BD drive for my HTPC. Do any of the drives come with decent playback software with 5.1 output?

BD Drives comes with 2-channel Audio version Cyberlink PowerDVD...

I got the full version and i run 5.1, 6.1 or 7.1 Audio depending on the material I'm playing.

PowerDVD is the best software for Blue-Ray and HD-DVD as of today.

My LG came with Cyberlink PowerDVD Ultra. It definitely has full support up to 8 channel (7.1) audio as well - it isn't limited to 2 channel. My setup is only 2.1 currently, but the software is definitely full featured.

my lg drive came with power dvd 7 crap edition. limited to stereo. 8.0 ultra is better (passes dts to my receiver just fine).

all i can say is check the box to see which software its giving you.
