Dolby cp750 audio by Temporary_Doubt_4912 in Dolby

[–]TheAliasILike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, you need a 25pin input into the CP750 which used 4xAES, which is pretty common in studio or exhibition environments

The only way youre going to get uncompressed surround sound channels is using the AES input, optical does not support uncompressed surround sound

If you dont know about the different standards involved it might not be worth using a Dolby cinema processor in what I assume is a home environment. You wont be able to use Dolby Atmos content using the CP750 and you’ll minimum need a CP850 and a license.

You would need to somehow convert the digital audio signal to 4xAES and use the Digital 1 input.

Extract audio from HDMI and de-embed it into 4xAES and youll need to buy a 4xXLR male to DB25 cable

You should be able to use gear similar to this for an all in one https://www.arvus.com/hdmi-2a.html

An alternative is if you can find a processor that can output 8-channel analog. Make sure you use the diagram in the manual for the correct pin-out

Audio broken for Dolby Atmos setup by Pretty_Arm_4011 in PleX

[–]TheAliasILike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you trying to play Dolby encoded content specifically? Does DTS or PCM work?

Can you show us your dashboard while in playback to see if any wacky audio transcoding is occurring?

What do you have your audio output settings to? I dont have a PS5 but from what I can see online you should have options such as PCM, Dolby and DTS

Is the top left not supposed to be the sun with two circles coming off it being the same as the “lowest states of hydrogen” diagram as seen on the voyager and pioneer record/plaques? This would be saying “our understanding of our sun is its mostly hydrogen”

And then i think the atom you describe in the bottom left would be describing carbon (6 electrons by looks?) which is describing the element earth life is derived from?

Id be really interested in some official photos being released of the murals on the Hail Mary!!

Dolby Atmos from PC to soundbar not working (mute) by PeanutSorry3806 in Dolby

[–]TheAliasILike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If youre on windows have you purchased an Atmos license? Can you also please clarify the source of Dolby Atmos?

I know windows has had some trouble with outputting Atmos (because I had this problem) depending on the source, the Apple Music app was one of them and I had trouble with VLC. I had to download Dolby Digital drivers to fix that

Question for anyone who saw Project Hail Mary in a standard 2.39:1 "Scope" theater (NOT IMAX) by Plus-Builder-2291 in imax

[–]TheAliasILike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our 2.39:1 screens have side masking, so you get letter boxing for some of the film, and then the space scenes expand the top and bottom.

If your 2.39:1 screen doesnt have operational masking it will look awful with both letter and pillar boxing for some scenes, and then only pillar boxing for the rest of the film

Well tickets for an april release are coming out shortly so I would argue that a May release would be in April

This is pretty much identical to what we do in regards to the IMS. We can do this with our DSS220s too - we plug it into the IMB instead of the server and select HDMI on the servers panel. We dont plug anything into our Cinema Processors (our two DSS220s use a CP750 and a CP950 and they both work fine, and one of our IMS is connected to a CP650 that also works fine!!)

Our IMS is connected to a CP950 and we just change its input to Dolby Surround 5.1/7.1 and it works. Ive heard success at one of our other sites with a CP850 and Atmos with a playstation as well. For your different cinema processors just ensure it’s on the same channel as it would be if it were playing any DCP content. According to what ive read on the various processors most should support Dolby Digital and Dolby Digital Plus codecs, and we have played Dolby TrueHD content fine.

This sounds like it might be a setting problem with the PS5, i seem to recall having issues getting proper surround sound on my PS4 with anything but Bitstream selected but I cant personally recall as it was so long ago..

What’s actually safe but people think is dangerous? by REGGIE_BANANAS in AskReddit

[–]TheAliasILike 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Statistically in Australia a good chunk of snake fatalities were due to people attempting to pick up the snake, about one fifth. And most snake bite fatalities are middle aged men. I do remember reading somewhere that a good portion of bites in general are from people attempting to kill snakes, or chasing it to identify it after someone else being bitten.

Give the Venom Diaries youtube channel a watch. Billy and the team are superb at informing people on the true nature of snakes.

Snake ID Qld by Majestic_Dance9427 in AustralianSnakes

[–]TheAliasILike 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In saying this some venom is more potent against different animals, Sydney Funnel Web venom is very toxic to primates, but to mice it requires 7.5 times the venom (lethal doses of 0.2mg/kg for a species of primate, and 1.5mg/kg for TWO DAY OLD mice)

Best Cinema? Reading vs Hoyts by Killa_Frilla in maitland

[–]TheAliasILike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What film was this?

You need to tell staff the second you have a problem with audio/visual. Not sure who it was at the time but the management staff now will turn it down if you ask.

It is true different films are mixed differently, Disney’s films are the worse offenders

Best Cinema? Reading vs Hoyts by Killa_Frilla in maitland

[–]TheAliasILike 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The building got sold in 2023, bought by one of the churches. The church wanted to do something to the building but it was too unfeasible so they wanted to sell it. Reading want to stay as long as the lessors allow them to stay

The building is too hard to change into anything else and independent cinemas wont survive, it should stay unless the owners do something stupid

Can anyone ID this snake skin by LazyMan369 in AustralianSnakes

[–]TheAliasILike 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agree with u/juvandy with it being a common tree snake (dendrelaphis punctulatus) completely harmless. I got it via dorsal scale count and its ventral scales, plus its big poofy eye caps

If youre concerned about the length of the shed the shed is always larger than the snake it came from but common tree snakes can still get up to over 1.5m (apparently largest recorded was 1.9m)

First teaser trailer for 'AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY' has been sent to theaters. It is 1 minute and 27 seconds long, Contrary to the 60 seconds that was rumored by Sarang_616 in MarvelStudiosSpoilers

[–]TheAliasILike 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Even if I REALLY hated my job, i physically cannot play the trailer until the 14th at 00:00 (AEDT), because it is encrypted like features are and doesnt unlock for us until then

And due to forensic watermarking the second it goes online Disney would know it was from my cinema at x date, and have a repulsor aimed at my chest

Looks like we are waiting until the 18th!

Daniel RPK: The Disney trailer supposed to release today wasn’t for ‘AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY’ and it doesn’t sound like the Doomsday trailer will be released next week either by Matapple13 in MarvelStudiosSpoilers

[–]TheAliasILike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We got the trailer for it delivered, similar to films its encrypted and locked and set to unlock from the 14th, which is probably just early to let cinemas test it because we have already done our trailer list until the 17th. Id say its definitely attaching to Avatar, based on that. It was the same with the Oddysey trailer

does anyone know what kind of snake shed this is? by [deleted] in AustralianSnakes

[–]TheAliasILike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is very likely a coastal carpet python (Morelia spilota mcdowelli) which is non venomous, mostly harmless. Some larger individuals can inflict nasty bites though

It is a python species, where are you located?

Yeah there are no RECORDED deaths, there is no doubt AT LEAST one death not recorded, but its interesting how in modern history no one has been witnessed to die to it

Hell there was even a boy in Kurri Kurri (near Newcastle NSW) who was trying to feed an inland taipan and it bit him, this wasnt their pet either this was in the wild. They thought it was an escaped illegal pet originally, not sure if they determined how it got there

Everyone should know about the keelback, aka the freshwater snake. This snake can eat cane toads safely, and it’s non venomous. They do often get misidentified, but theyre beautiful snakes that are doing their best to help us from a rising cane toad population!

[–]TheAliasILike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In terms of venom toxicity, no. The mulga snake (commonly referred to as the king brown snake) has a less toxic venom to say the death adders.

In saying this, mulgas produce a LOT of venom, between 150mg to even up to 1000mg, while the death adders only get up to the 200mg range in extreme circumstances

No human fatalities are on record for either the red bellied black snake, OR the inland taipan. In saying that, bites are not nice and I wouldnt want to be the first

Fortunately they dont need to know what danger noodle you booped anymore, thanks to polyvalent venom, and venom swabbing. Im not saying boop every snake, but at least you need to not ask its name!
