vgstream does not support the surround sound jingles in that set, and I downloaded the latest version.

It does......your sound card might not support it though

Prove it.

Oh god, don't be a dick. Either use a system with more than 2.0 speaker setup or a player that can downmix multi-channel files to plain stereo.
Using XMPlay here and multi-channel files play fine.

agu fungus: As I already said, VGMstream supports multi-channel stuff just fine. As everyone here has said, it's a problem with your system, not VGMstream. Want proof? Use VGMstream to decode the files to WAV (don't use the plugin, use "test.exe"). It will output a mult-channel WAV file which will also not work on your system, but is a 100% valid WAV file (it's not malformed, it's not broken, it's actually audio) which could then be split up using a decent WAV editor (and, once split, would work on your system). Seriously, you're not the first to encounter this issue. Your system can't support the mult-channel files, VGMstream can.

Simplified: You're wrong, VGMstream works fine. Accept the facts, and either split the files (the above method works), or get a better system. Mouser X over and out.

i have the same problem with multi-channel files like the adx files from "Okami", as everyone says, vgmstream works fine, it's mine and your system which simply won't support it with 2 speakers...

Make sure Winamp has Surround Sound enabled, also make sure that your speakers are set to Stereo using whatever software your sound card/chip uses. (If you only have stereo speakers).

The output plugin I use is the out_ds.dll, and in the settings I have to have "Allow Hardware Acceleration" on in order to hear the surround sound files. Also it only plays the first 5 or 6 channels. The rest are not played (Such as Koopa Cape which has 8.)

The trick is that these channels aren't all supposed to be played together (with the exception of games with the 6 channels of 5.1 surround), they're supposed to be mixed down to stereo with various weightings, like the dynamic music we find in many other games. It is not within vgmstream's purview to do this mixing, however, as it would require the user to choose what mix he wants, or making probably invalid assumptions. The solution taken now is to simply ignore the problem.

OK. I think I got it. I managed to play the wav files in Audacity, and now converting them to mp3. Thanks for the tip.

Could someone please re-seed Musashi Samurai Legend?
Thanks!
