You should have a button so ANY DVD would use all 5 speakers. But you do this manually now. Now if you do not change nothing, then put in one DVD that uses all 5, then the DVD is in 5.1 mode. Some DVDs can have a stereo or 5.1 output. When watching a DVD movie, go to the audio section, if it has one, and there should be different modes of audio there. like 5.1 or stereo. Now, there are some movies, like my old Kung-fu movies and old DVD, that may only have the play and select scence mode. You do not have an audio choice and they will play on the stereo mode. You have to manually adjust the speakers to use the 5 speaker mode. So DVDs vary in audio output. But if it has stereo output you have to fiddle with the system so you can get 5 speaker output. Whereas it a DVD says 5.1, then if you have the capacity it will play all the speakers. Hope this helps. Two things. You should have a button so ANY DVD would use all 5 speakers.
