They're both the same. A "channel" stereo receiver merely accepts a given number of channels (2,4,5, &tc.).

A stereo receiver has 2 channels of audio output, left and right. A receiver marked as ___ channel receiver has the corresponding number of channels. For instance a 5 channel stereo receiver can play 5 different channels of audio through 5 speakers. If the receiver has a decimal, such as 5.1 or 7.1, that indicates that it has 5 or 7 channels of regular audio, plus 1 channel for subwoofer, making them 6 and 8 channels, respectively.

Is there a way you can add 5.1 audio to Auxiliary Inputs?

Auxiliary inputs to a receiver are always stereo. If you have a 5-channel analog signal (from a computer or other multi-channel device), you will need a receiver with a 5.1 analog input. This has 5 separate RCA inputs for left, right, center, sub, and the two surround speakers. An analog output from a VHS-Hi Fi VCR can be input into the stereo aux inputs of a receiver and decoded to Dolby Surround, but this format is actually only 3 discrete channels, left, right, and surround. It has no separate information for the sub or the center channel, and has a limited bandwidth on the surround channel.
