Smart5.1 - The Technology Behind The Feature
Implementing Smart5.1 on a VIA Mainboard is made possible through a combination
of hardware and software. On the hardware side, Smart5.1 circuitry has been
designed into the latest VIA Mainboards that utilize the VIA VT1616 six channel audio
codec onboard. The VIA VT1616 is a high performance six channel audio codec
designed to meet the demands of today's PC-based multimedia entertainment
applications such as DVD audio, MP3s and computer gaming. The software that
enables Smart5.1 is embedded into the VIA audio driver so when a technician or
system integrator is setting up a VIA Mainboard he will simply choose to enable
Smart5.1 when proceeding through the driver installation and feature selection
process. To setup a set of six channel surround sound audio speaker system
becomes as seamless as plugging the three speaker plugs in the three jack
game/audio port on the back of a VIA Mainboard.
