I still have to change the configuration when playing games, because apparently the ASUS Xonar DX soundcard does enconde Dolby Digital but not 5.1 in games. When I changed the configurations to make the "S/PDIF Pass-through Device (Asus Xonar DX Audio device)" default, I finally got to enjoy true DTS sound in my movies. When I tested the sound in the device properties, as I was testing from the ASUS Xonar soundcard the home theatre received DTS indeed, but only that. The way I understand it is that the onboard soundcard encodes EVERYTHING into Dolby Digital 5.1. As it turns out, I wasn't using my ASUS Xonar DX soundcard, but the onboard soundcard. But as stated before, this was only half the solution.

How am I listening to everything just fine? Is my PC converting the DTS to Dolby Digital before sending the audio signal to the Audio receiver? I use KMPlayer but I tried the same video files with another sofware (Classic Media Player) and the result is the same. So here's my question: Am I actually listening to DTS audio? Is this the way it's supposed to work? If not. The display keeps showing the DD logo instead.

I listen 5.1 just as I should, but the audio receiver doesn't display the DTS title. BUT! When I play a video file with DTS sound. I watch movies in dolby digital sound format, everything is perfect. I play videogames and they are in 5.1, just as I want them, I listen to music in Winamp, everything works as expected.

Then I check the DTS Audio box and the audio receiver display shows the title "DTS 3/2.1" and I listen the same short sounds from each speaker at a time, as it should be! So far, so good. In my audio receiver the display shows the title "Dolby Digital 3/2.1" and I listen to a short sound from each speaker at a time, as it should be. Inside the properties of my sound device, under the "Compatible formats" tab, I check the Dolby Digital box and test it. Once done, I managed to make everything work as it should (apparently). I went through all the trouble that is configuring the sound. I have it connected via SPDIF to a SONY audio receiver that can play both Dolby Digital and DTS sound in 5.1.

This is the thing (and sorry if I make this too long, I tend to over-explain things): I bought my computer a few months ago, a little less than a year. As the title claims, I have a weird problem with DTS sound. Hello everybody, I'm new here, I hope I'm asking this question in the right place.
