I have my PC connected to my TV by DVI. When I watch movies, it's off my computer so the audio comes through the computer speakers (2.1) and the video through the TV. I'm thinking of upgrading to a set of 5.1 speakers for my pc. Since they're for the PC, I don't need a receiver, but do I need to get a sound card or specific software to hear the audio in movies in 5.1?
Also, some of the movies I'm watching are off the web, would I need to find specific 5.1 versions of these movies, or would that be something written into the file? And if a movie isn't in 5.1, or if I'm just listening to music will sound still come through all the speakers?
Thanks!
