Acer :: Timeline Surround Sound Output (5.1/Ac3/DD/DTS)

Aug 26, 2009

The Acer support wrote that the timeline is able to output 5.1/Ac3 sound via hdmi.

The Realtek driver is configured to route the sound through hdmi.

Using vlc with a Blueray rip (with Ac3 sound), I can't select something like Ac3 Passthrough for hdmi (I found spdif passthrough when selecting it in the realtek drivers, but it didn't work either).

Well using k-lite codec pack forcing Ac3 output I only get noise on my end. The AV receiver should play DolbyDigital and DTS. what he does is dolby pro logic II upmix.

Apple :: Dolby 5.1 On MacBook Pro

Jan 15, 2010

I have a MBP OSX 10.6.2

I am trying to get 5.1 to my home stereo. I have a mini toslink cable with adapter plugged in from my MBP to my home stereo. Stereo works fine. When surround is selected all audio is muted. I have tried adjusting settings in Audio/midi and everything else. all seems to be shaded. There is light at the end of the cable albeit dimmer than from my dvd player and Direct tv console.

Does my MBP have 5.1? If so am I doing something wrong? Do I need an extra sound card?

Dell :: Studio XPS 16 (1640)Dolby Digital Through HDMI Possible?

Feb 5, 2010

So as the title states, I am wondering if it is possible to play a video with audio encoded in Dolby Digital on my laptop, pass it through to my TV via HDMI, then out via optical to my receiver. I have a friend who owns a HP business laptop with a SoundMAX sound card, but also an ATI graphics card. We are both running the Realtek ATI HDMI 2.39 drivers, I have the latest drivers from Dell for the IDT sound card on my Studio XPS 16 (1640). He says (and I've seen) he is able to do Dolby Digital this way through an option (see attachment).

However, I do not have this same "Custom" tab / option, and we are running the same driver version (at least to my knowledge). Can anyone help me in finding out if this is doable, and if so, what software (and versions) are required?

HP/Compaq :: HP 8510p HDMI, Passthrough Dolby Digital, DTS To Amp --->

Oct 20, 2009

I have a HP 8510p (XP32) that works really fine. The only thing that I can not make it happen is that whatever I try I can not get the DD, DTS work between my laptop HDMI and my receive. I recieive only stereo (Audio HDMI OUT is selected).

Question:
1) How on earth can I get DTS/DD from my laptop HDMI when i play a mkv with DTS/DD audio?

2) If I connect the laptop to the TV via HDMI and the laptop to my amp via optical, can it make the trick? (the only problem here is that, my laptop does not have optical out, just HDMI and analog, but using a docking station i can have optical out...)

Acer :: Dolby Digital Plus Lags Or Crashes On Aspire V7

Sep 6, 2014

I have a problem with the Dolby utility that came preinstalled on Acer Aspire V7 482PG. When I click it, it takes around 5-20 seconds for the interface to show up (5 when I am not doing anything, more during playing anything with sound (youtube video etc.). Sometimes it does not even open and the icon disappears until I log off the PC and logon again.
 
PS.: there is enough HDD space, it is defragmented, there are no viruses or spyware (according to Defender and Malwarebytes), there are not too many programs running in the background.

Apple :: New Macbook Capable Of 1080p Mkv

Mar 2, 2009

I am planning to buy the new aluminum macbook. This will be my first mac experience. Will the base model at 2.0ghz be able to play 1080p mkv file? And yes, I do know the resolution is only 1200x800. The 1080p mkv movies are from my desktop computer. It would be a hassle to convert everything to lower resolution to be able to play on the macbook.

Dell :: 1080p Output

Dec 22, 2008

my finger is currently hovering over the BUY button of a great 1080p monitor at a great price. There is only ONE left in stock and I have a dilema!!! My specs are shown below.

Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor T8300 (2.4 GHz, 800 MHz FSB, 3 MB L2 Cache)
4096MB 667MHz Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM [2x2048]
256MB ATI Mobility RADEON HD 3450
320GB (5.400rpm) SATA Hard Drive
Genuine Windows Vista® Home Premium 64-bit
Fixed Internal 8X DVD+/-RW Slot Load Drive including Software
Primary 9-cell 85 WHr Lithium Ion battery
15.4" Wide Screen WXGA (1280 x 800) Display with TrueLife™

The other day I played a 720p mkv file via HDMI output to a tv, with no problems, picture/sound was fine.

I then tried 1080p output of another video file, via HDMI to the same tv. This tv has a native resolution of 1680 x 1050 and I know that this is not full HD (1080p) which is the resolution of the video I was trying to watch but if I recall the display settings on my laptop were set to 1080p... The video was unwatchable and choppy, pixelated and skipped a lot.

I then tried the same video via VGA with slightly better results, running this time at the natvie resolution of the tv (1680 x 1050). The video was less pixellated but still skipped, enough to make it unwatchable.

I have eliminated the cheap (£3.50!) HDMI cable as the VGA cable was also similar in quality.

My question is this:

Is this poor quality simply due to the fact that my GPU cannot handle pumping out 1080p via hdmi/vga output to a TV? (it plays fine on my laptop's native resolution of 1200x800, although clearly that is not 1080p so it seems that the GPU can handle it?) If the GPU cannot handle it then I am dissapointed as I assumed when purchasing a laptop with a HDMI port that I could output full HD videos to my televsion.

On the other hand if I purchase this new monitor that supports full 1080p HD will the video play ok? In other words, is it the my televison, and not my laptop that is the problem; surely the GPU works just as hard to play the video regardless of what the display output is?

Acer :: Audio Digital Output For Notebook

Dec 24, 2007

type of connector needed for digital audio? I have not been able to confirm that my Acer 7720-6395 NB has a dual digital connection. The manual calls the jack a S/PDIF but looks like and allows a stereo plug to work. Talking to the folks at the Sony store claims that the jack could be a dual connector and would work with a headphone or a optical connection. Would love to watch a blue ray movie with 5.1 sound......

Sony :: Raltek High Definition Audio No Digital Output

Apr 10, 2009

I have the following problem:
Sony Vaio VGN-FW370J with Win Vista Home Premium 64 with Aptio Utility.

I do have realtek hd audio card and this card should have digital output. My gf has a toshiba satellite with the same card and she has it but I don't. I called sony and they replied (twice with different technicians) that this feature is not available on this model. Both audio cards have the same chip so I suspect that this feature is disabled hw.

It is not a driver problem. The driver does not install the Realtek Audio Manager so within the OS there is no way to enable it.

Dell :: 5.1 Surround Sound

Mar 22, 2009

I have a Dell XPS M1530 with the sound card that comes with the package. I also have the soundblaster audigy software but that is irrelevant as it pretty much does nothing.

I have a Yamaha TSS-15 surround sound system. It worked beautifully with my laptop before I reformatted. After reformatting, despite installing the latest Sigmatel High Definition Audio CODEC as well as ensuring the actual physical surround sound system was all in working order I am unable to get 5.1 from my laptop. When I click "test" and I click on the middle, rear speakers or subwoofer no sound is emitted however when I click on the left or right speakers they work fine. I have a standard audio cable plugged into my laptop which is then plugged into my surround sound system.

I can only locate that I have Sigmatel High Definition Audio (Codec) but my upgrades to the driver have not been installing because every time it says that proper driver was not found.

How can find the exact driver I have on my motherboard? Ultimately, I want to be able to get support for surround sound.

Also, I read the headphone jacks support digital audio and they are [left channel] [center channel] [right channel]

I would like to be able to take a 1080p/5.1 BD or .mkv on my laptop and connect it to my AV receiver via HDMI which then outputs 1080p/5.1 to my HDTV/speakers. I have no idea what minimum video card/sound card/processor is required for this.
