Is it possible to use Dolby Atmos AND Spatial Audio at the same time? in c/android@lemmy.world
[–] ndr@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

You mean my headphones? They're Sony WH-1000XM5.

On second thought, they don't specifically have support for Atmos but I was under the impression that as long as the device playing the content natively supports it, it should be fine.

Spatial Audio settings:

Dolby Atmos settings when Spatial Audio is off:

Apple's implementation of Spatial Audio uses Dolby Atmos, so I was wondering if the same was possible on Android.

But the question is, if I'm playing Dolby Atmos content, what should I use then? It'd make more sense to use the Dolby Atmos setting but that one doesn't have head tracking (that my headphones support).

Edit: also this is not about converting a stereo stream; I'm playing native Atmos content.

I can't understand if it just means that for some reason the settings cannot be changed (refer to the screenshot) or if it's because Dolby Atmos is disabled when Spatial Audio is on. I could not find any information about this anywhere.

I might actually end up disabling swap in the end. I wanted to update that apparently I “fixed” the problem (not sure if permanently) by turning off the pc, unplugging the PSU, and holding down the power button for 30 seconds. Normal reboots weren’t enough. I’ll take it for now.

This is so much better than all text-to-video models currently available. I'm looking forward to read the paper but I'm afraid they won't say much about how they did this. Even if the examples are cherry picked, this is mind blowing!

Re: rant. Yeah, normally none of that goes to the authors of the paper. So you’re not really taking anything away from them.

Two things are at play here:

  1. Out of all the recommendations and ads, you only notice those who are actually relevant, so you’re biased.

  2. One would be surprised by how easy it is to predict interests and patterns based on very little information; there’s no need to spy all private conversations for that.

Do you mean how I pronounce or why I say it? If the latter, just because it sounds funny to me and it kind of became a running gag.

Login via HTTP on local network (lemmy.world)
 

Let’s say I self-host something like wefwef (Lemmy front end) locally, so I can see it on http://localhost:port on the machine where it’s running with Docker, and also on my other devices on my same local network by accessing http://192.168.something.something:port

Now, if I were to input my login credentials on that (so without HTTPS), how dangerous is this?

Disclaimer: I'm not from the US.

As a student in a relatively large-ish city, I've been doing fine with public transportation. I'm not particularly interested in driving because of (no particular order):

  • environmental impact (in part mitigated by EVs)
  • 'severe' ADHD; I would never be relaxed driving
  • safety; I don't trust other drivers to follow the rules properly

Should I still get a driver's license sooner than later?

I'm using Lemmy too much. (lemmy.world)
 

The amount of comments and posts I have for being here only for 5 days is absurd!

How do I stop?

As there is some overlap with autism, I figured some of you might be interested in joining this community!

I've just created 4 communities on Lemmy instead of starting to study for an important exam in two days. This is a cry for help. But it's also kinda funny. 💀 (lemmy.world)
