What Is Button Audio?

[Alec]

And, does anyone know why it is the only thing that comes up when I go into the audio settings on my Dark Knight BluRay?

 

[Alec]

OK I'll leave it after this but...anyone?

This may be an incredibly simplistic (and wrong) answer - is it merely an on/off toggle for sounds made when pressing a button on the remote?

 

[Alec]

Might be

I'll check when I can.

And if you're looking for the disc's soundtrack options, I believe they're under the "Languages" menu

Ta-da....

Ahem. Thanks Clare. Is it me though, or does that make little sense?

No it doesn't, but it's a bit of a "feature" of Warner BDs...

Yep, along with them often defaulting to lesser soundtracks unless you play 'find the HD audio'

If you have your players audio set to mix. It turns on/off the sounds created when selecting options. There are a few discs which have this facility. Hancock and Wall-E are others that spring to mind.

Yes, fun isn't it

- I sometimes miss the simplicity of DVD menus...

Thanks Lee. I didnt know about this defaulting to certain formats thing, but i guess its has to default to something unless theres any way for ones hardware to select the best format for you...?

I have an audio button too, but havent seen what it does yet.

You may well find your Blu-ray player's remote control has an Audio button - this is normally the easiest way to ensure you've got the HD audio soundtrack selected I find as it doesn't involve hunting around the menus!

EDIT - ah, posted this before your response there. Yes, use the Audio button!

 

[Alec]

Sorry to bump this but, about BluRays defaulting to whatever format: Is this regardless of the hardware you use or is it possible to have an amp that chooses the best format? A friend thinks this is what happens in his system...

He uses a PS3 and the Sony DH800 I think.

 

[Clare Newsome]

Nope, it's disc-dependent.

Thanks Clare.
