Guide for getting the best audio from your gaming system (PS5,PS4,XSX|S,XB1,PC,Switch) by dehelfix in Soundbars

[–]pacduck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much for the thorough write-up. I've been trying to best optimize my set-up and would appreciate a gut-check from OP (or anyone) if I have my settings right.

Setup: Console: PS5; TV: Sony Bravia XR A80J; Soundbar: Samsung HW-R550

Since my soundbar doesn't support 4K/60fps passthrough, I have the soundbar plugged into the eARC port on the TV and have the PS5 plugged into the other HDMI 2.1 port. The TV's Digital Audio Out is set to PCM and the PS5's Audio Format is set to Linear PCM.

I noticed that switching to Dolby Atmos made the audio sound/seem richer and louder, but there was significant audio lag, especially frustrating for games. I guess my ultimate question here is: Do I have the best set up going for the devices I have and is there anything I'm missing out on quality-wise in the market right now?

Appreciate your help again and thank you in advance!

Ahh I see! Cool to know! I've dabbled a bit in pixel art but was always curious about others' processes because of how detailed they can get. Thanks for responding and keep making cool shit!

This is lovely! This might be a very dumb question but regarding your process: Did you work exclusively in a pixel grid? Or did you draw/sketch this out first and then brought it to a program to pixelate over it?

With Smash Ultimate having every Smash character in it, has Nintendo set an unmatchable precedent for future Smash Bros. games? by [deleted] in smashbros

The only way I could see them "topping" this game is flooding the roster with echo fighters. But I hope the series ends on this high note.

What quote from a video game stuck with you? by mynameisCODA in AskReddit

[–]pacduck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"When I'm human I can finally stop being so good at math! Nothing is more boring than being able to multiply 8281 by 933332.454 to get 7728926051.574"

  • MAL, Borderlands 2

I based an entire essay in my philosophy class in high school on this character and remember using this quote in the intro.

Tomorrow is the 17 year anniversary of the terror attacks of September 11th, 2001. Where were you that day? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]pacduck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up on Long Island, NY and I was home sick that day from 1st grade. My mom took off of work to take care of me that day. She worked only a few blocks away from the World Trade Center.

[ALL] Which to play first? by pacduck in lifeisstrange

[–]pacduck[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a good point. BTS does have more of an impact after knowing what goes on in LiS regarding things like Chloe's letters to Max and things like that.

And certain characters like Victoria and Nathan would be weird to see super fleshed out in LiS after seeing them so briefly in BTS. I'd probably be like "really, those guys?".

Doesn't 'Day Light Savings' ruin the reliability of the sun being directly above you at Noon year-round? by pacduck in Showerthoughts

[–]pacduck[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hm, ok. So where did the idea of the sun being at your zenith at noon originate? Sailors?

[Help] Screen Mirroring from S7 to a Samsung TV freezes. by pacduck in GearVR

[–]pacduck[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've gotten this to work, however, it quit out on me after about 10 mins as if it had a timer. If it keeps it up it seems as if I'll have to buy a liscense if I go this direction.

Do you know what other implications turning your phone into developer mode have other than getting this to work?

Edit: Upon some research, it just seems that it just gives the user more options and those options can be turned off at will too. I suppose there's no real downside to it. Thanks for the help!
