Well to do this you need at least a 4 channel payback device.
Fundamentally, only method you can use is Dolby digital 5.1.  You can 
use
just 4 channels if you like or 5 or 5.1.  I experimented with this a 
while
back for just remixing boots into 5.1. Sound Forge with the DD encoder
plugin will do it and then you can burn to a cdr.  The cdr will play 
in most
DVD players just fine.  I'll let you know that my experience was 
ultimately
less than satisfactory.
