    Constant changing of headphone surround formats.


    Most people at Dolby Labs would say Dolby Atmos headphones app on Xbox one would work best with Dolby.

    Likewise most people at the DTS company would say that dtsx headphone app works best with DTS movies.

    And I assume Windows Sonic was originally programmed to work with lpcm 7.1 games and movies.

    If all three are true, then why do I have to manually go back and forth and switch between the three every time my Blu-ray disc is recorded in a different format?

    Shouldn't there be an option called "match Media" or "best fit".

    Some people are Dolby nuts and some people are DTS heads and will try to convert every movie into that format.

    I say anytime there's translation there's a possibility for translation error, and that throws off the headphone surround effect.

    is it the most important thing about the headphone surround is to be able to tell which direction the stuff in the movie and or game is coming from and going to etc.

    Aren't you supposed to use your hearing to dodge things blindly without ever seeing them?

    and if they work best using the same type then why shouldn't Xbox have the option to let you have the best by selecting each type (assuming you bought both the Dolby Atmos headphone app and the DTS X headphone app.)

    Also do lower Dolby movies like Dolby Digital 7.1 5.1 etc not work well with the Dolby Atmos app? if so then shouldn't there be a Dolby Digital mode or an adobe prologic mode on the Dolby Atmos app, and shouldn't it automatically switch between them.

    I noticed my Turtle Beach DSS sounds better than the Dolby Atmos app in non-atmos Dolby movies.

    Why doesn't Xbox "Autoswitch" between Dolby Atmos Headphobe, DTS Headphone X, and Windows Sonic?

    Hello, if you think Dolby Atmos, DTS and LPCM are 3D formats: then you don't know the technical aspects of physical movies.

    Close but no cigar.

    It does deal with 3d, but it's spatial AUDIO not video.

    Most audiophiles have "communal surround sound" which is speakers and a converter box. They convert Dolby and DTS into LPCM and pipe surround sound directly into speakers

    However headphone users have to convert surround sound into surround headphone sound directly. Dolby headphones converts Dolby encoded movie and ONLY Dolby ones into headphone surround. Same with DTS.

    If you try to mix formats, like decoding DTS discs with a Dolby decoder or vice versa, the results are flat, muted, and unrelated to the 3d space of the movie.

    Headphone users have to match for type. Unless you can give me a reason why "Always Dolby" or "Always DTS" is a good idea, there is no reason those options ARE available, yet "Match Media" is not an option.

    Match Media should be the default, and not an option we have to moan and b***h over. If both Dolby Labs and the DTS makers say it's best to keep likes together, and they don't even try to decode the other company's language, and physical disc releases come in all 3 varieties: Dolby, DTS, and LPCM, then why is "Match Media" not AN option, let alone the DEFAULT option?

    Thanks, now I check, but I would like information, with the audio settings of the headphones on XBOX One, any non-surround headphones, even stereo become virtual surround ??
    Or do I need a certain type of headphones to have surround sound?

    Open the Microsoft overlay (Windows + G) and change The sound output from the surround sound speaker option to whatever your regular headphone output is.

    Can't answer that, but listening through headphones IS NOT surround sound.

    headset

    For $300 you can get headphones and an amp that sound nearly as good as a surround system that costs 10 times as much. And there are things that you can hear on headphones that you would never hear on a surround setup. And you can use your headphones day
    or night, even with your wife/GF sleeping in the same room.
