Windows vista bagas31.ĭolby Digital Plus Over Optical Dolby Digital Plus and Industry Adoption
The problem is, many users are accessing more and more of this streaming media on network devices like Blu-ray players and connected 'smart' televisions. Many streaming media providers simply don't transmit anything other than stereo sound, likely figuring most people don't have a 5.1 system connected to their computers or tablets. So far, the biggest problem is with adoption. That means less dropouts and more options for 5.1 delivery. Dolby Digital Plus is based on the original Dolby Digital (AC-3), but it allows for streaming media to present surround sound even with limited bandwidth. It gave an option to have high-fidelity audio without the high bandwidth requirements of some of the lossless surround formats. Dolby Digital Plus was perfect for both home theaters as well as the world of PCs, mobile phones and online streaming.

Want the best? Try Dolby TrueHD, a lossless format that promises to be identical to the movie studio's master recording. Since then, Dolby has released a slew of increasingly advanced codecs including Dolby Digital Plus, which supports HD surround sound and up to 7.1 speaker channels.

So yeah, contrary to some say here you actually can send E-AC3 (Dolby Digital Plus) streams over optical cable and it will play just fine without getting downgraded or converted to any other format.Dolby has put out a few new surround formats since Dolby Pro Logic, but Dolby Digital Plus (also called Enhanced AC-3 or E-AC-3) might be one of the most misunderstood. Which means it does not apply any kind of format convertion or downgrade of any sort and directly sends bitstream to receiver to decode. Btw I chose bitstream out and Dolby Digital respectively in console's audio settings and checked "Allow Passthrough" option. Returning back to Xbox, to my surprise the audio played successfully without any issues.
And then I connect Logitech Z906 speakers to my setup using an optical cable from the TV.Īfter trying to play some films with DTS-HD Master Audio and getting only silence, I used a mkv multiplexer to extract the audio of the movie and used Xmedia Recode program to convert DTS-HD MA stream to E-AC3 (Dolby Digital Plus) with 960Kb/s bitrate (which was the maximum) and then I put E-AC3 stream back into to mkv file.

My Xbox Series X console is connected to my Samsung Q95T TV via HDMI 2.1 cable. I'm kind of ashamed for resurrecting a very old thread but last night I did some experiments.
