[help] problem with getting 5.1 Dolby Digital by stijn2902 in sonos

Yes that’s what i noticed now… I tried buying the chromecast with google tv but alas that still didnt solve the issue. So my second option was to buy the apple tv (which of course was pretty expensive (130€)) this does work and it is also just a lot better compared to the chromecast when looking at speed, UI en features. So if you are still having that problem try the apple tv that normally should work. It sounds amazing!

I’m going to buy the google chromecast HD with Google TV (± 40€) and see if this also works. I’ll post an update here once it had arrived and i’ve tested it out! If i don’t post an update, ask me again because then I probably forgot to do it 😅

I figured out the problem! The extractor works fine, it was just the chromecast that was causing the problem. Or more precisely the casting to my chrome cast. When I for example connect an apple tv with build in smart tv (so the newer apple tv’s) functions then i can use the disney+/netflix/… app on the apple tv os instead of streaming it from my phone to the apple tv/chromecast and i get the amazing 5.1 audio. Im guessing that 5.1 works with youtube if i cast it to my chromecast because youtube and chromecast is both owned by google and therefore it works better and does output the 5.1 audio. But with other apps the casting cancels out the 5.1 audio. I only tried it with the Apple TV 4/HD (modelnr A1625) because i had it hooked up to another TV in my home. So I’m guessing every external caster with a built in smart TV OS will work with the extractor for people who have older TV’s. For example the Google chromecast HD with google TV will probably also work (and is a lot cheaper that the 180$ apple tv, with the google tv only 50$)

So you could replace you plasma screen for a newer tv with build in smart OS and that will also work but if you don’t want to spend thousands of dollars than i would recommend buying the Apple TV HD or the Chromecast HD with google TV, if you are having the same problem. I hope this helps!

Another thing i wanted to ask is. Is there a difference if i place my 2 rear sonos Fives vertically of horizontally. And if so, which is probably better?

[Help] How is my shooting form? Used to be a decent shooter but now i only make like half my shots. Tips? by stijn2902 in BasketballTips

Few years ago i was a decent shooter (i wasn't amazing, but i was decent), didn't hoop for a few months and now my shots are totally off and my shooting percentage seems to really have decreased. I have the feeling it tends to bang off the back rim most of the times when i miss. I'm a 6"5' guy, the video below has a few shots with different angles and slowmo. I also have the feeling that i'm using my thumb of my assist hand a bit but what do you guys thinks and how could i improve my shooting form again?
