Is it possible to have your PC output two separate audio channels?

For example, have one audio jack play the sound from windows media player, while another plays the sound from Winamp. so that i could have two separate songs playing SIMULTANEOUSLY from two separate sets of speakers.

I am running Windows XP, my mother board has 6 audio jacks, no sound card, I use Realtek audio codecs.




You can have two songs playing simultaneously, and you can have 2 sets of speakers PLUGGED to a single pc...but i'm not sure if you can direct audio in the manner which you've requested. I've never done it before.

Just out of curiosity...what do you want it for?actually, I want to use my computer as a jukebox to play songs around my house. But, at the same time, I still want to be ABLE to watch videos and surf the internet without everyone in the house having the music interrupted by crazy web game audio.

My computer has 6 audio out jacks which you can program using Realtek to perform any of the various audio channels (SUB, front, rear, mic, etc...) so it just seams natural that I could use those to play separate audio out sound.

Anyway, I recently heard of this device that you can use to mix audio, sort of like a DJ. It has a separate audio out port that plays a preview (something like 1 min ahead) of what will come out of the other audio jack. That WAY you can make sure that what you are mixing sounds decent before everyone else hears it. That is what gave me the idea.ah....well. all i can say is..i can't help you.

i've never tried what you're attempting.

but don't fret, i'm sure someone will come around and help you out.Kind of a self bump. Does anyone know how to do this?I seriously doubt it can be done...how would 2 seperate signals seperate themselves anyways ? ?
