I'm a bit upset about the original Audigy 2 ZX drivers because they don't support decoding ProLogic stereo sources (upmix to 5.1). They only have those CMSS/2 upmix options which seem to be a very poor own imitation of ProLogic. There is a better ProLogic-to-5.1 upmix decoder in Creative's player, the NEO DTS thingy, but being in that player, it's quite useless: I want to watch television with 5.1 sound. So I need a ProLogic-to-5.1 decoder directly in the sound card driver and not in a specific player. Would this kx project be a solution? Does it have a ProLogic decoder in the driver and, if so, is the decoder good and configurable?
