Dolby App no longer compatible with wireless headphones??

Do you have dolby access or the dolby headphones app installed on your console?

I know the Dolby Atmos headphone app works directly on Dolby Atmos preprocessing. Sinilarly the GTS X app works preprocessing.

How hard is it to write the logic saying this:

If preprocessed audio is a Dolby format, just use Dolby Atmos headphone app.

If preprocessed audio is DTS format, just use DTS X headphone app.

If preprocessed audio is lpcm, then use Windows Sonic headphone app

I wanted to work exactly like my Turtle Beach DSS except is more flexible and can handle higher Dolby soundtracks and DTS and lpcm.

I assume the Turtle Beach DSS worked directly on Dolby 5.1 from the Toslink port.

I would do it myself except it doesn't do DTS at all any justice.

I'm relying on my headphone app to give me directions because I don't have a big enough or symmetrical enough room to house a communal system. Plus communal surround sound systems are very expensive at the most basic $200 for just the decoder plus $100 for each speaker plus the wire and stuff like that. Versus 35 bucks regular price for a Dolby app and a DTS app. And the windows Sonic app is given for free for lpcm stuff.

When I do Dolby or DTS headphone app it overrides the preprocessing and directly converts Dolby connunal into Dolby headphone and DTS connunal into DTS headphone.

All you do is move the conditional up if you're doing best match. You just select the best headphones format before you decode into lpcm.

Backwards compatability for games and audio systems are entirely different things. The term backwards compatability and a standard connection like "optical" shouldn't even exist in the same sentence. And even if the current headsets don't work, "Dolby Headphone"
is pretty much the standard for surround sound headphone technology. This takes Dolby 5.1 Source Material and creates a 7.1 matrix.

Check that you have fresh batteries in the controller, as the controller turns off some features when the batteries get low to conserve battery power like rumble and headphone sound.

Also, can you go to the Settings under Display & Sound and check the settings there. If you have set the headset audio to "Dolby Atmos for Headphones", be aware that you need to have PURCHASED the Dolby Atmos for Headphones app.

If you simply downloaded the Dolby Atmos app for free, you only get a 14 day trial of Dolby Atmos for Headphones. After 14 days, Dolby Atmos for Headphones stops working.

You can switch to "Windows Sonic for Headphones" to get the same spatial surround sound effect "for free".

Hi there,

For a pretty good review and run down on this product I recommend taking a look at this review:

https://www.windowscentral.com/plan...review-no-nonsense-wireless-audio-xbox-and-pc

It states that it has really good sound for being a wireless headset and the wireless signal is strong and it's easy to set up.

You have to redeem the code on your Xbox in the Microsoft Store app. Once the code is redeemed, the Dolby Access app will be installed and your access to Dolby for Headphones will be unlocked within the app with your pre-paid code. Once it's been unlocked
in the app and you have it set, you will need to go into your system's audio settings to turn it on. Go to Settings>Display & sound>Audio output>Headset audio>Headset format>Dolby Atmos for headphones.

I hope this helps!
