Been doing more multi-channel surround recording. I can playback my multi-channel projects from the DAW, but I need to look into a more convenient method for ordinary/casual listening, probably creating multi-channel FLACs and using foobar or winamp from a HTPC with a multi-channel audio card for output. I think they can handle multi-channel files. I'd love to set up a networked media interface like a sqeezebox, the WD box or an equivalent, but those are stereo only except for Dolby/DTS pass-through. Though I plan on eventually looking into encoding DTS files I first need a direct playback option and to figure out the foobar/winamp part.
Advice or suggestions on where look for info on this?
