Problem with multichannel ogg vorbis

[Tom_K2]

I have a problem with multi-channel ogg vorbis. I encoded a 6channel speaker test .ac3 file (the one that says “left front, center...lfe”) using BeSweet. When I play it with winamp it sounds exactly as the original (if i first select in the input-->Nullsoft vorbis decoder--> remap 6 channels correct(FL FC FR SL SR LFE). If I check “leave as is” I hear “left front” correct, “center” from the right front speaker, “right front” from the center speaker, “right surround” from the back left speaker, “left surround” from the subwoofer (yes I hear a hollow “left surround” coming from the sub) and although I hear the man saying “lfe” from the front left speaker which is the correct I cannot hear the bass from the sub(because I think its remaped to the back right speaker which cannot play low frequencies).
However the real problem is that when I play the file using BSplayer 1.2 I hear only left front, right front and lfe(I only hear the man saying “lfe” from the front left speaker but not the bass from the sub) from the correct speakers. I can’t hear center, left surround, right surround and bass. I checked all the settings in bsplayer but I didn’t find anything.
Please help because I want to start using ogg vorbis 5.1 for dvd ripping.

I checked all the settings in bsplayer but I didn’t find anythingwhat vorbis decoder do you use in bsplayer? corevorbis? maybe you have the downmix to stereo option enabled or use another filter (matrixmixer, ac3filter) additionally which downmixes to stereo?

I use ogg directshow v0.9.9.5. I cannot find any settings for downmixing. And in the vorbis decoder properties it says 6 channels but i hear only two.

Where can i find other filters and which do you think i should try. And how can i choose which to use in bsplayer.

I tried something today. I ripped a dolby digital 36 second video (the one with the mountains). Then I encoded the video with xvid and I made the sound multichannel ogg vorbis. I played the sound file with bsplayer and I had the same problem. But when I merged the sound with the video and played the matroska file with the same player everything sound correctly. Why is this happening?

Why is this happening?because for .ogm you use the tobias oggds v0.9.9.5 filters and in matroska you use the corevorbis decoder

thats why i said you should try other filters
eg uninstall 0.9.9.5 and try playing your file in "media player classic"
