Oddly enough, I’m coloring and fooling with my Labo stuff now. 33 years old and coloring is still relaxing as hell.

@HobbitGamer
Don't feel bad with coloring.
I'm 33 years old, working as Librarian + Drawing teacher for Primary School, must prepare my Drawing materials, so i have to draw and color a lot.

This is 2018.

Every adult likes to color.

Im sure Joey likes his new sound system, but I believe this picture truly captures what was going through his mind as he received this gift.

@Fooligan ....This isn't a gift, I bought it, lol.
Anyways, even with the adapter thing I have....surround sound won't work with it. Ugh...no idea what to do.

You misspelled "anime highschool girl"

@Joeynator3000 does the TV not have a SPDIF or optical out?

@HobbitGamer it doesn't, but i have an adapter that does, which is how I used my computer speakers with my Switch/hdmi stuff. So I'm using that, it works, but no surround with my bluray/Switch...

So what are you going to do? Should we call Jax in here? (not right now. better wait til tomorrow) I bet he can help.

I don't think there's anything he can do...Switch is stubborn, and my TV is old...

Are you able to plug Switch HDMI directly to soundbar, then soundbar HDMI to TV?
Apparently the Switch uses PCM, which passed through a toslink results in 2.1. Using the bar as an HDMI pass through would allow the PCM to retain 5.1, and make those back channels present.

I think. I couldn’t sleep.

The problem there, even though the audio works and surround sound actually works, is that the video quality becomes really bad. I start seeing the TV flicker a lot and it starts losing connection constantly, especially when I try to play a game.

So it doesn't really work, but at the same time, does...which gives me an idea to hunt down a new adapter. I'm going to see if it's possible for me to connect the Switch's HDMI to the TV and soundbar at the same time.

EDIT: Annoying that it doesn't work right from the start, but at least what I need isn't expensive on Amazon.

"The following problems were found with this form:
Woah, hold on there sunshine - didn't you already post that message?"

sunshine used to be my dancer name what a coincidence

QFT. I see adult coloring books in a lot of stores these days.

I used to draw on occasion, but now I just occasionally doodle on my work notes. 😋

Wooo I finally have a decent TV in my room.

It was an impulse buy, and I did buy it because I thought it was a cheap smart tv (that was another model in a nearly identical box), but it works wonderfully anyway.

With this I'll actually be able to use my mini classic consoles, and the docked switch looks way better now.

I may buy a fire stick just to get more use out of it.

@Yosheel How many Ks you get?

Ks?

@Yosheel Resolution.

@Yosheel Yeah, like 4K? That's the cool thing these days, so it better be 4!

Ooooh

I believe it is just 1080p (that's what the tv says when I connect my switch anyway). It's not that big either, 32" (wouldn't fit in my shelf otherwise).

It's already the max resolution my devices can output anyway. And my internet is too bad to stream anything bigger than that.
