Hey fellas, Just set up my new PC, which has a B450 Carbon AC in it, which should work with the surround on my Vizio sound bar. 1) I have connected them via bluetooth, HDMI cable (via the TV, which was then attached to the sound bar via optical), and directly through the optical jack. 2) I've configured the sound bar to output whichever one I was testing at that moment. 3) The TV HAS successfully done surround before, via HDMI to the TV and optical from the TV to the soundbar. 4) the back speakers test fine when I do the test straight from the sound bar, and ALSO when I do the Dolby and DTS tests from the sound properties panel of the Realtek adapter. 5) the spatial sound tab of the realtek settings only gives Dolby Atmos for Headphones. 6) I have updated drivers for everything. Despite all of this, I can't get surround to actually play in anything. A couple of sites I went to seem to say that Windows 10 has horribly broken 5.1 in favour of pushing Dolby Atmos. Any clues? I've basically just run up against the wall now.

Very few devices support mixing a dolby or DTS stream to PCM. They can pass through sources with those streams -- but most PC game sources are just going to be PCM. You mentioned the Realtek test works -- another example would be a DVD or a video encoded with a surround stream played through VLC. Without diving too deep into that motherboard, it's the most likely issue unless you know different. KS fucked around with this message at 00:50 on Apr 26, 2019 |
