I tried ARC out and it just wasn’t playing ball, it also adds in a extra cable to the TV. I use Apple TV and infuse a lot to watch some local content as well as the steaming giants so I’d rather not use ARC, besides it became overly complicated with my existing setup, ok well more complex than...

Yep I think you’re right, I just figured a ‘pass thru’ meant that the amp didn’t get involved but of course it must be travelling through some hardware in there. Crazy that it will do 24p and not 25, literally just over 1hz difference. Yeah I’m considering HDMI ARC or optical cable back to the...

Hi all, go easy i've not posted in years :) I have recently got an Apple TV but am having a problem with Dolby Vision, I can run the menus and any content at 4K HDR 60hz without issue, literally no problems at all, Gemini Man for example. As soon as I switch on Dolby Vision from the settings...

Thanks for you help, I’ll take another look!

The only wires going to the stat are the 3 in the picture exposed when I removed the stat front. They run directly from the big white switch on the wall to the right.

No idea, its a new build, it was all fitted before I moved in. I'll tidy the wiring up when I fit the receiver.

Hello guys. As much as I am in a new property they have fitted and old style timer and thermostat which is kinda annoying cause no matter how much I read I don't think I can self install my hive receiver. This is my current boiler and timer. To the right the white switch is an isolation...

Ive actually still been getting issues processing 4k, it was all smooth and no CPU load what so ever but it was sometimes pixilated and blocky in fast moving panning shots but mostly any kinda of image with a lot of white in it, for example a cloudy sky. Turns out NVIDIA CUVID decoding isn't...

Well good news, everything works!!! So I had a few different issues all stopping me from enjoying 4K from my HTPC. Figured I might document them to round this post off nicely. Issue one was that only 2 of the 4 HDMI imputs on my AMP are 4K pass through....this isn't documented anywhere in my...

Yeah we'll know for sure when they arrive in a few days. So many people reporting the same issues as I was with those cables. Nuts really considering how they are advertised. I know that expensive cables are a rip off which is why I went for them cause they were cheap and they were advertised as...

Faffed around with this for a while and although absolutely nowhere in the product manual does it say some ports do some don't....it appears only two do, the Sat/STB one and the one labelled BD. So now it works, however it does flick to black every now and again which is annoying and I think...

Yeah so I'm still getting issues :( I wondering a couple of things, windows 7 doesn't see my Sony TV as the monitor it sees the av reciever which makes sense as it's plugged into that first and in the windows resolutions bit it still says 1920 X 1080 is (Recommended) but why? Other resolutions...

I've ordered the card anyway, thanks for the help, I'll let you know how it goes!

Yeah I know I was somewhat clutching at straws......I need to get a dedicated card at some point anyway. The TV doesn't tell me what the Virgin Media box is putting out FPS wise but it does prove that the AMP is passing it through.

If I force it to 30hz it works for about 3 seconds and then craps it again and reverts to flickering. It's weird because the virgin box works and the TV shows its at 4K res, albeit all the content isn't but then TV is still receiving 4k resolution rhroigh the amp. Yeah optical out would be an...

Ive got HDMI 2.0 cables and for those who are bored http://www.pioneer-audiovisual.eu/sites/default/files/manuals/VSX-329-K_manual_ENpdf.pdf That's my AV, accept that it's most likely to be the problem now but considering what it claims to support I'm baffled. Sounds absolutely stupid but...

Balls, just plugged my HTPC directly into TV via HDMI without it going through my Pioneer Amp, windows tells me that 1920 x 1080 is recommended but if I change it to 3840 x 2160 it actually works. My AMP has a 4K pass through which supports 4K at 24 25 30 50 and 60hz...so there should be no...

One more thing..... This is my motherboard. https://www.overclockers.co.uk/asus-h81i-plus-intel-h81-socket-1150-ddr3-mini-itx-motherboard-mb-585-as.html Says it does 4K but it just doesn't work when I set it, should this actually work and I've got a different problem?

Hey thanks for the help folks. My case just has the one plate for a card. It'll have to be 1.0, anything bigger won't fit. Hopefully the linked one will be pretty quiet, if the fan is thermal activated it'll be fine as my case is nicely cooled. Thanks again, really appreciate the help.

Cheers mate. Am I reading the spec wrong.... Specification: - Streaming Processing Unit (SP): 384 - Base Clock (MHz): 1227 - Boost Clock (MHz): 1506 - Memory: 2048MB - Memory Interface Width: 64-bit GDDR5 - Memory Bandwidth (GB/sec): 48 - OpenGL: 4.5 - Bus Support: PCI-E 3.0 - Maximum Digital...
