Yes, I mentioned this earlier ----Is there a program for download with 5.1 sound?
I use a roku to stream YT, and I get the surround mixes. Haven’t tried downloading the video through my PC.I'm not getting any surround from YouTube no matter what, even if I download a video and play it with vlc or mpc I only get stereo so not sure that it's a browser thing.
Yes, I have a Roku box also & it will stream my 5.1 files in true surround also but I have not found a way to do it with a computer with Windows HDMI connection for some reason (probably Windows messing with the stream I suspect). I have been told that a newer Apple TV box or FireStick will also work but I don't have either to confirm that. RogI use a roku to stream YT, and I get the surround mixes.

Isn't that the reason you posted the download process?but I have not found a way to do it with a computer with Windows HDMI connection
Yes, but since there are many here much smarter than I am about these issues, I was hoping someone here might figure out a way to stream my Surround YOU TUBE mixes using Windows 10. RogIsn't that the reason you posted the download process?
You should probably mention YT rather than just saying Windows. Outputting 5.1 on Windows is easy. Outputting 5.1 on YT is entirely different.Yes, but since there are many here much smarter than I am about these issues, I was hoping someone here might figure out a way to stream my mixes using Windows 10.

Yes, you are correct -- that's what I meant. Thanks for the correction I just updated, RogYou should probably mention YT rather than just saying Windows. Outputting 5.1 on Windows is easy. Outputting 5.1 on YT is entirely different.
Yes I have tried a few of his mixes also some good & some not so good. I have done around 1000 songs in surround now but I am slow getting songs sent to my YouTube channel but hope to get several more added soon. Since I am 73, I mainly do surround mixes of the late 50s to early 80s with a few outside this also just to let everyone know. RogSo here we are, ten months down the road from the first post in this thread.
I've found a channel with content that drew me in, and quite happy with the result.
I'm using Prime Video on a Firestick into an old Yamaha AVR that happily decodes Dolby Digital Plus from HDMI.
I simply needed to go into the configuration tool to change the audio from Best Available to DD+.

There seems to be a steady flow of content continuously updating.
The content is complete albums formatted as playlists, most satisfactory.
There are a sprinkling of upmixes of classic titles, most labeled as such.
Yesterday I sampled several mixes I'd never heard, including Meddle, Avalon, Simon & Garfunkel, etc.
This morning's new offerings include five Alan Parsons.

I just uploaded my 5.1 mix using the multi-tracks of "INXS - What You Need" at if you would like to hear it.
Also I just uploaded 8 new surround mixes to my 5.1 channel if you are interested.

So Rog - I am 73 also, I now better understand where you wonderful aesthetic taste comes from. Your 5.1 plays great through APPLE TV - and my EMOTIVIA AMP and Pre-amp actually do an amazing job converting your stereo stuff to 5.1.Yes I have tried a few of his mixes also some good & some not so good.

Check out what Tesla did today! Even worse...I understand if some people think this is off-topic or inappropriate, though to my mind the politics (and the economics, and the "political ecology") of streaming are inseparable from developments in the technology of streaming and the pleasure we derive from it. In any case, I'm posting this for informational, not political, purposes. Strictly speaking in pertains to YouTube Music rather than YouTube, per se, but within the Alphabet universe I think the boundaries between those two entities are a little fuzzy.
