Thanks lucid, My speaker setup is a close match to the 5.1 setup you describe with my rears behind my sofa but not completely behind / more just off the side to the rear of the edges of it. I think it makes sense to stick to 5.1 but I am glad to know my setup does at least support atmos given...

Right so got it working by setting config to 3.1.2 and top middle option set by default. When I play the blu ray it out reports the input as "Dolby Atmos / True HD" and output as "Dolby Atmos" 3.1.2 which I guess is right? My next question is which is actually best for my setup? 5.1 or 3.1.2...

Thanks all for replies 1) Firmware fully up to date (it updates via wifi and i check weekly for any new updates) 2) This is a good point and no not checked, I will do this later - is top middle a good setting to use regardless of atmos? I have a standard 5.1 speaker arrangement Atmos app is...

So I have the following setup: Xbox Series X Onkyo TX L50 receiver 5.1 surround speakers I recently enabled the Xbox to output Dolby Atmos. This appears to work fine in games like Halo Infinite. The receiver acknowledges it is Atmos and I see it specified in the output source info. I tried...

I did try to use a referral code but couldn't get it to work. Gave up. So yes gotta say far more impressed now after using it a lot more. I set it to mode 2 for the IDP and that was far better for me. Walkabout Minigolf is absolutely incredible. I was blown away. Worth the price alone! Realise...

So fired up Quest 2 for first time last night. Second VR device after a Gear VR in 2017. My first impression was not actually that positive. The resolution is not as good as I was hoping for. It doesn't seem a lot different to the Gear VR tbh for watching Netflix and videos in general. I am...

Very impressed by Series X so far. Whisper quiet and loving the Wireless Display feature that lets you cast your PC to Xbox. Feels like having PC plugged into TV. My wireless mouse and keyboard range extends to living room too so I can navigate and interact with it using those.

Nice one! Did you get a physical copy then? I will get my Series X delivered tomorrow and only plan to play Hell Let Loose and Flight Sim to begin. Let's friend up on Xbox Live (xGUNISHMENTx)

It's a brilliant semi sim level WW2 FPS. Online only. Excellent on PC but I want to be able to play it on big TV and with surround sound, hence getting Xbox. Can play with you maybe if you buy it.

Went for the xbox as was good deal with 3 months GPU and a decent looking headset bundled in. Wonder if MS plan to release a more next gen controller one day? I went for Xbox mainly for Flight Sim on TV really. I will still have a PS4 and tbh suspect I'll end up with a PS5 in few months too...

Thanks ok let you know about the code when I get it all set up. I will just be using the Quest as my PC is too old to handle VR now. (see sig)

Thanks both look in stock here still, damn can't decide what one I want now. Most of my friends play on PS these days but the Xbox SX appeals more cos of flight sim. Is the xbox controller pretty good? I like sound of haptics on the PS5 but have feeling it's a gimmick..

Anyone know of anywhere online I can order a Series X right now? I just want a next gen console to play Hell Let Loose on my TV.... PS5 will do too tbh! Think my pref would be Series X though due to fact I can play Flight Sim too.

Noob with VR here. Used a Samsung Gear VR (latest gen one but that is few years old now) and that is literally it. Just ordered a Quest 2 128gb... am hoping it is a vast improvement visually over the Gear VR? Hoping the difference is considerable? Gear VR felt like a proof of concept to me...

thanks I am now after a monitor to replace it with as my current one, although ok, only has a single dvd-d and rbg connection. Want something with usb-c for macbook pro and display port. Ideally 24-28inch. Any ideas?

Hmm ok I will try it with a PS4 or something just to test HDMI. Got feeling it is done for though. It had a good life! 12 years and never once felt urge to change it. Guess time to move into the 4k res world though. Any recommendations for a 24-27ish size monitor that will work well with...

Is it worth fixing? Considering age of monitor here. It is an internal PSU

My trusty Samsung T240 SyncMaster, which I originally bought from OcUK in 2009, appears to have died. Was such a good monitor I never felt any urge to upgrade but luckily do have a second display I am now using as the primary. Wondering if this sounds like a hardware fault... it hisses...

The more I look into this the more I am thinking of just sticking to my 2 24" ones for now. 1900by1200 is a good general res for most stuff.

It is gonna be mostly for internet browsing tbh! I game mostly on PS4 and PS5(soon) these days.
