Tripredacus Posted November 25, 2019 Posted November 25, 2019 Another thing on the horizon of compatibility nightmares, programs or games being developed using Windows 10 specific APIs. While a program or game may list Windows 7 in the minimum system requriements, not everything will work correctly. Let us take for example, Borderlands 3, which runs fine on Windows 7. For audio it supports two mode: Stereo or Spatial Sound. Quote The platform fully supports real-time Dolby Atmos encoding for both HDMI and stereo headphone output, as well as Windows Sonic for Headphones encoding for stereo headphones. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/coreaudio/spatial-sound Essentially Atmos or headphones only. There is some patch history concerning Borderlands 3. Using an actual Dolby 5.1 soundcard, when the game launched it played some sounds in the wrong speakers. After this first patch, the surround worked properly. After the most recent patch, it runs in "surround" mode but utilizing stereo (front left, front right) only. Is there any known wrappers to allow Spatial Sound (or emulated Atmos) to work on SoundBlaster 5.1 cards?
