Hello,
Sorry for my English, not my mother language.
I have set up my first surround sound system ever, Laptop connected to HT system and then to the TV, all done though HDMI.
Everything appears to be working correctly, laptop audio devices show my HT as playback device, and all speakers sound individually when tested. VLC player options are either Directx or Wave sound with Dolby surround option checked.
HT display shows all channels working, along with <<LFE>> SW. I have sound through all speakers... at the same time.
And that is precisely the issue, consider I tested the system with the film Gravity (2013), and I was expecting, for example, to be receiving different audio through each channel, lets say dialogs through the center, engine thrusters through the rear, explosions through the front, just to say something. But basically I feel the sound like if you just take plain stereo and have it sound through all speakers at the same time.
So, are my expectations too high? or is there something that is not working in my setup?
