  Dolby Atmos on a PC
Posted by: nzoomed - 27-06-2024, 04:44 PM - Forum: PressF1 - Replies (6)

Dont know an awful amount about it, but from what I can tell, there is no existing sound card or hardware that can be installed in a computer that can decode it.
Ive got a projector set up using a HTPC i put together and the setup is pretty good, but considering upgrading.
It appears that your computer can handle the dolby atmos signal and send it out via HDMI, but needs to be connected to a seperate receiver that processes it if im not mistaken.
Wondering if its a waste of time looking for a receiver, but have a nice set of speakers connected to my existing sound card through a 5.1 channel amplifier.
Would have been nice if such hardware exists, im a little surprised that Creative labs dont have any sound card that supports it, perhaps the licensing fees are pretty high?

  Golriz Ghahraman interviewed by John Campbell
Posted by: harm_less - 27-06-2024, 02:24 PM - Forum: Opinion and Politics - Replies (13)

Brilliant interview which lays bare the stress and mental anguish of Golriz that backgrounds her shoplifting episodes, but not used as any sort of blatant excuse.

In admiration of Golriz for the depths and volume of personal threats she endured before something 'broke', and an insight into the pressures of political life on many of those who choose to represent us as their public duty.

  PSU failure?
Posted by: Bryan - 27-06-2024, 07:40 AM - Forum: PressF1 - Replies (5)

I should have left well alone. I have just upgraded to an Asus Z490-v motherboard. All went well having removed the older motherboard and installed the Z490. I decided to put the older board in another case. I believed I installed everything correctly. When connected all fans run but I cannot get a monitor signal. The optical disk seems to be operating but keeps closing down, listening carefully I can detect that the other fans shut down and then start again, this is continual. I tried another case with a third board but same PSU, same result, has the PSU failed? I am wondering if the 8 pin plug has a problem (just looking at the pins they appear OK). Testing is beyond me and I donÔÇÖt have another PSU to change to and I donÔÇÖt want to upset the new setup. Am I missing a fundamental here?

I'm sure this is being done here as well, experimental increases in pricing:

Finally. He has to plead guilty but the deal allows him to be released & head home to Oz.

  Autoplay music files
Posted by: Bryan - 25-06-2024, 02:26 PM - Forum: PressF1 - Replies (9)

I am using Windows 11 Pro. I am just upgrading my PC and changing cases. I have up until now been able to use the AUTOPLAY on videos from a SATA internal backup drive without problem. I installed an upgrade Asus Z490v from another case using the same SSD C: drive. However, the autoplay no longer works, I had in the bottom R corner entered the .., and can get the autoplay to appear to be invoked but that doesn't work and if I restart the PC the Autoplay has reverted to something to be invoked again. Any ideas?
