I'm trying to play non-5.1 (stereo) movies on VLC (Windows version) on a 5.1 system. Unfortunately, VLC by default doesn't upmix stereo to 5.1. I've tried experimenting with different settings and nothing seems to work. I admit, I'm a bit lost now. Does anyone know how to set it up?

Use KODI to send the signal directly (pass-through) to your receiver. Make sure your audio device has the "allow exclusive" checkbox checked. Use the appropriate Surround program on your receiver to "upmix" to 5.1.
Other players and drivers may also support pass-through (e.g. K-Lite Codec Pack), but I haven't tried recently.

Have you tried using the Speaker Fill option under Speaker Settings --> Enhancements? – Daniel – 2015-12-23T22:52:58.350
