    Audio questions.

    Hey guys, being that I had forgotten I created this thread, I think I recently got my situations taken care of. After doing a little bit more research on the issue and with help from others, it turns out that if I leave the output audio format on my Blu-ray player set to auto and if I leave...

    What annoys you?

    It is. It’s a pug turning his head sideways….lol. I’ve never had a Pug before but I’ve never had anything bad to say about the ones people I’ve known throughout who has. That little Pug on Men in Black still cracks me up…

    What annoys you?

    Even if the retreading companies would just be a little more selective when they choose used carcasses would be a big help. I’ve see brand new retreads where the carcass was over five years old. And yeah, I have had virgin tires blow out before but no way near as much as retreaded ones and the...

    What annoys you?

    So being that you included the word "and," are you saying you're also annoyed by trucks having blowouts? Especially this time of year which was when you posted this comment? Hmm. Allow me to explain mort likely why that is. Those tires when fully inflated have over a 100 psi in them cold. The...

    Hmmm, so... something you could easily ignore, annoys you?

    Audio questions.

    Well, I figured it out for myself. Guess my soundbar is strangely too old of technology that it's HDMI input doesn't support the newer HDMI technology like my TV's HDMI inputs do even though they were manufactured the same year. I can however actually use the HDMI input on the soundbar to...

    Understanding HDR Settings on the AppleTV 4K

    Ok. Well, I’m gonna try it a bit and I’m assuming I need to leave the HDMI output to YCbCr and leave the chroma set to 4:4:4? That’s the settings it enabled itself by switching back to the 4K SDR. Oh and sorry if I’m having a hard time getting this stuff you already explained but when you don’t...

    Understanding HDR Settings on the AppleTV 4K

    Oh ok, I guess I missed that part where you talked about only the menus and screensavers being HDR and I guess essentially wearing out the OLED panel but if I set my tv to 4K SDR, won’t that affect the content I watch that is HDR? So far a lot of Hulu live’s stuff I don’t think is HDR but a lot...

    Understanding HDR Settings on the AppleTV 4K

    I’m assuming my TV is compatible with that or it wouldn’t let me select it, yes?

    Understanding HDR Settings on the AppleTV 4K

    Ok well, when you said to set the output to 4K SDR, you’re talking about under “video and audio” and where it says “format” up at the top, select the 4K SDR 60(59.94hz)? Currently I have it set to 4K HDR 60(59.94hz). When I select the 4K SDR 60(59.94hz), it sets the chroma to 4:4:4 and the HDMI...

    Apple TV 4k remote and Samsung TV

    There is a learn function for the remote under the settings and no, it’s the original remote that came with my Apple TV. I haven’t either but this TV is linked to its remote via Bluetooth, or something. I know it’s not RF because if memory serves me correctly, I had to pair my current remote to...

    Understanding HDR Settings on the AppleTV 4K

    Thanks for the quick reply. But, I don’t know, maybe it didn’t when it was new but according to this, under the HDR formats, it says my TV supports all of that but Dolby Vision and Advanced HDR. How would I verify this information? So even with that said above, is it still advised to set the...

    Apple TV 4k remote and Samsung TV

    I coulda swore at one time the remote for my Apple TV 4K would control a lot more of my TV and even make the TV screen display the volume up/down when you changed volume but now, it only shows the change on my Samsung soundbar's screen and even to get it to do that, I have to leave the TV...

    Understanding HDR Settings on the AppleTV 4K

    I appreciate your explanation but I'm still unsure of what my settings need to be. I have a QN65Q7FAM Samsung TV so any help would be appreciated.

    Audio questions.

    I have another issue/questions to add to this discussion. After doing a little bit of research, it turns out that the HDMI inputs on this TV are just 2.0 and I’m pretty sure that the monster brand 21GBPS cables that I bought from Amazon are HDMI 2.1 or 2.2 so does this make any difference? Also...

    Well I moved the Amazon fire stick to the bedroom and got rid of the input expander thing so at least switching between inputs is easier once again.

    Audio questions.

    I guess I probably could delete my Amazon fire stick being that one, since I have a Hulu Live subscription, I really don't need it anymore and no one uses it and two, the only reason I have it in the first place was to watch other stuff but tat proved to be more of a pain than what is was worth...

    Audio questions.

    Yeah, you're right, there's a difference between a splitter and a input selector but I guess you'd just have to see it to see that its working the same with or without it.

    OK. What do you mean?
  20. Corneileous

    Audio questions.

    Yeah, I didn't include that information until just a little bit ago but yes, I have a 4k splitter and the reason why is because my TV doesn't have enough ports to connect everything I have being that the soundbar is using one of the ports. As I have it currently, my playstation, my soundbar, my...

    Audio questions.

    I don't get what you mean... I can hook it to the TV with a HDMI cable or a fiber optic optical cable. But what is the HDMI input on the soundbar for? I'm finding that out...lol. Actually I shouldn't say that because I think I might be getting things figured out. Instead of just leaving...

    Audio questions.

    Sorry, your abbreviation confused me....lol. But yes, the Apple TV is plugged in to the TV through a HDMI splitter. I guess I could try hooking it up to that. That would actually be great then I wouldn't need the splitter. But then again, my Blu-ray player is connected to the splitter as well...

    I don't get what you're asking. Everything is connected via HDMI port.

    Audio questions.

    My 4K player is connected to the TV lie everything else. Should it be connected directly to the soundbar? But actually on second thought, I don't remember what Samsung told me that HDMI input on my soundbar was for but a while back I was on a chat line with a Samsung tech asking if I could use...

    Audio questions.

    That is definitely true. What sucks is like how this won't let you run certain settings unless the conditions allow for it. I actually had pretty good audio while watching a 4K Blu-ray just a little while ago but I had to go into my TV's audio settings and select Dolby Digital on the output...

    Audio questions.

    Ok so, when you say to set everything to Bitstream audio, does that matter if the soundbar is connected via ARC or optical? And what bitstream options do I use? On the TV, if I set the HDMI Input Audio Format to Bitstream, the only options I can select for the Digital Output Audio Format is...

    Audio questions.

    So should I leave that set to auto or just turn it on? Ok, thank you. So that means basically there’s a center channel and a right and left channel? And of course the .1 is the subwoofer, correct? With all due respect, I’ve done that. Lol. I’m mot rest sure what works the best but at least if...

    Hey guys, I have a Samsung UHD 4K QN65Q7FAM TV, Samsung HW-M550 Soundbar w/sub and a Samsung UBD-K8500 Ultra HD 4K Blu-ray player. What is the best audio settings for both the TV, the Blu-ray player and the sound bar so that whenever I’m watching either a DVD, a Blu-ray or a 4K ultra Blu-ray...
