You got an answer so I don't know what you're complaining about.
Why didn't you pose the dumb question as one of your puppets
as you used to do so you could join the thread later and pretend
you knew the answer all along?

I had a similar problem connecting a DVD player to a stereo amp,
trying to mix the centre channel into L and R as it doesn't have
an option to output plain stereo from a 5.1 source.
Two 10k and a couple of 20k resistors did the job.

That's odd. I've never met a DVD player that would not provide a 2-channel
mix-down from a 5.1 source if set up to do so. Indeed many low-cost DVD
players only have 2 audio output sockets, so 2-channel mixed-down audio is
the only option unless you connect the digital output to an external DD/DTS
decoder.

Or was it that you wanted discrete surround channels and it was only the
centre speaker that you didn't have?
