Hi,
I'm new to hackintosh, just got my i3 NUC working on El Capitan and everything is working as expected, have not made any major configuration changes at all.
Audio is working both on DP, HDMI and Analogue (3.5") - However I'm not sure I'm getting the right channels. After looking at Audio Midi Setup I've discovered that I'm sending 8 channels. This is somewhat new to me as I'd prefer 5.1 (6)
I have a few questions about that:

I have a few questions about that:
- Are the sound PCM sound? i.e. 8 discrete PCM channels? (at whatever sample rate and bitrate I pick?)
- If I run lets say VLC can i do passthrought? (I remember that worked on my MacPros I had previously)
- I can select an Audio device called HDMI Encoded Output, what's that?
- Would it make sense for me to run the HDMI fix script(s) as I have Audio, or would that be required
