Same here. Strips the top end and bottom end off the sound and everything sounds far off. Works great on headphones, but tv results is pants!3D audio sounds terrible, muffled, at least in a couple of games I tried it with.
No, it always have the Playstation Hits banner in Your collection tab even if it's installed. It only shows the good cover in the Installed tab. Your collection covers haven't changed after the updateGood.
But only if its not installed tho, right?
I don't know, I don't remember. But I have the special edition of God of war so at least that should show a regular cover, I think.Did you buy the PlayStation hits version?
Probably because it hasn’t come for soundbars yet?Used 3D audio with my soundbar and is god awful, everything sounds like you are being at the bottom of well. Switched it off quickly.
I thought this is for any 2 channels audio?Probably because it hasn’t come for soundbars yet?
Not having folders was a pretty big step back in the UI IMO. My SO keeps complaining about not finding the games just because one has to navigate to library->installed->scroll through the list. Really wierd decision.I want two things now:
The ability to remove the stupid "your games news", or at least don't give it automatic focus when I call the in-game menu.
Bring folders technology back, I know it's very highly specialized and demanding for the hardware but I really love folders! Hire the best programmers in the world if necessary!
Only for the pulse and 2.0 speakers, where it simulates 3D. No Atmos on the PS5 is the biggest letdown for me. Would've loved to hear Returnals amazing audio being pumped through my Atmos setup. Here's hoping for an update one day.I have two questions regarding the PS5 in general:
1) Does 3D audio work with a 5.1 dolby surround system, or is it only for headphones and your TV speakers right now?
2) (unrelated to the firmware update) Does the 'updated' PS5 console (the infamous 'worse cooling' one) have coil whine?
Yeah, seems Samsung 980 pro is a scam. Premium price for middling performance, stay away.
I have a faint menory of Cerny saying they would roll out 3D audio to PS5 in this order:I thought this is for any 2 channels audio?
If I’m wrong then it makes sense.
Firmware needs to be updated

I suspect some some adjustment may be needed by the person. It’s like people that watch tv on dynamic are shown a proper calibration and they dispose it.Used 3D audio with my soundbar and is god awful, everything sounds like you are being at the bottom of well. Switched it off quickly.
I have studio monitors and I thought the same thing. The surround was there and working well, but it sounded so lifeless and tinnyI calibrated 3D audio to my Bose monitor speakers and it sounds absolutely dreadful. There is some surround effect which is cool but everything sounds so tinny, compressed, and treble-y. Turning 3D audio off is a dramatic improvement in sound quality. So for me this feature did not really work.
yeah and it sucks bad on 2.0 speakers...I really hope that Tempest 3D works well and makes the difference in surround system.... but i doubt it.Tempest currently only works with 2 speakers, roadmap is to support surround speakers next. Once that is implemented everyone will have 3D on their preferred setup.

I'm sitting it out. I looked for a thread about it here on neogaf and this seems the closest, so perhaps it's not a common problem.Anyone have issues updating their PS4? A thread on Reddit, half the users are having major issues. I'm afraid to update mine.
Welcome to the Western Digital crew.My WD850 1TB arrived and is reported as being 6550 MB/s upon formatting so think I'm going to keep that in and send the Samsung 980 Pro back.
I should have never gone against Cerny's sage advice. I bow my head in shame and hope that he will now forgive me.Welcome to the Western Digital crew.
Got the 2TB version.
I use rest mode all the time, it seems ok, the problem I am now having after the update is with my pad. It also did an update and now I'm getting some weird issues with the aiming, if I touch the aim very gently it will drift very badly in game. Never did this before the update.Rest mode still broken. Got the green screen crash 4th time I put it into rest mode after the update
Cerny tried to tell youMy WD SN850 1TB arrived and is reported as being 6550 MB/s upon formatting so think I'm going to keep that in and send the Samsung 980 Pro back.
Hmm, I thought I noticed something with my controllers too, but can’t put my finger on itI use rest mode all the time, it seems ok, the problem I am now having after the update is with my pad. It also did an update and now I'm getting some weird issues with the aiming, if I touch the aim very gently it will drift very badly in game. Never did this before the update.
Edit: and yes I've tried unpairing/deleting the pad, using the cable, reset with the pin hole, turning off Bluetooth etc,
Now I can't play anything at all. Not impressed.
No button to go straight to trophies, but that's something I'd actually like.an someone tell me why they redesigned the control center without putting a button in it to get directly to the trophy collection or am I just too stupid to see such an option?
Yeah, but I’ve also read of people updating but saw no change on PS5. Waiting on official words due to conflicting info out there.
Either way, not bothered. Runs like a dream, fuck it’s fast.
I cant believe they didn't duplicate the account/profile icon, the trophies icon and the settings cog in the down-below menu. I hate that theyre separated off.No button to go straight to trophies, but that's something I'd actually like.
I mean, you can get to them by going to your profile (top-right) and then going to Trophies, but a button would be great.
It‘s obvious that Sony is not a software company like Microsoft. Everything is just so stupid complicated, they almost are able to compete with Nintendo in regards how stupid their UI is. It‘s almost on the stupidity level of you need a smartphone app to communicate with other people.I cant believe they didn't duplicate the account/profile icon, the trophies icon and the settings cog in the down-below menu.

Mine sounds quite good actually. But maybe because it's an OLED. Even my TV has 3D audio and has the same tuning like the PS5 though. So possibly why it's better.I calibrated 3D audio to my Bose monitor speakers and it sounds absolutely dreadful. There is some surround effect which is cool but everything sounds so tinny, compressed, and treble-y. Turning 3D audio off is a dramatic improvement in sound quality.

Honestly it should have been like that from the start.I have to say this was a good update. I like the way you can reply to messages easier now.
You'd get too many complaints from "people" who accidently closed their games.I just wish you could close a game after hitting the PS Button. Having to select Home -> Options -> Close Game is silly.

It’s called FerrofluidIf you are using the soundbar via ARC from the TV, you can change the soundbar selection in that PS5 menu to TV, and then those options become available, and it allows you to calibrate through the soundbar - which is what I did - but I haven't had time to try any content I know to work well on phones, to see if it works as hoped.
I have a funny feeling, the console is reading the TV's identifier to have knowledge of the TV's speaker specs and relative positions, and reading the TV internal setting for whether the TV is on a stand or wall mounted, so its algorithm would have false info if using a soundbar instead of the TV internal speakers.
Makes me want to try the PS5 3D audio on the spare TV's excellent 60watt fluid magnetic speakers.
I think you should forget about this.Hang on a second. This is promotional material
