5.1 sound problem

[PoeFlorin]

I just instal w8.1 on my pc and I cant get to have full 5.1 sound in youtube in any browser. Before I had w7 and all work fine. Now on soundcloud I have 5.1 sound but on youtube the bass doesent work.  In games, movies etc everything is ok.

From what I'm told, YouTube isn't designed for use with surround sound. It's only encoded in 2.0 stereo mode, which means any added bass to a YouTube video is artificial. So if you don't have a way of introducing that artificial bass, then it's not going to work.
