I have a Audigy and Altec Lansing ADA885s, I use powerdvd 3.
What do I have to do to get the ADA885's which have a dolby digital/prologic decoder built in to play the surround sound in my dvds?
Do I set powerdvd to use waveout or 6speaker errr?

You should have a digital output which uses a 3.5 mm connector, all you need to do is buy a 3.5 mm to RCA (Mono) converter, then you should be able to hook it up to the digital inputs on your speakers. To find out more on how to do this, visit Creatives <A HREF="http://www.soundblaster.com/manuals/AudigyPL.pdf" target="_new">Web site</A>.

If it works for you then don't fix it.

There's an option in the audio setting for PowerDVD that says something like pass to dolby digital/DTS decoder...

Lyrics. Wasted time between solos.

You need PowerDVD 4 (XP) to support the Audigy in Dolby digital mode. At least I did.
