Dear Matt, and friends. Thank you for this app.
Basically i was kind new today after reading reddit when i found windows sonic and dolby atmos plugin demo.
So i am usually watch movies dolby digital (some with atmos) and music (some with atmos) via my smart android tv thru ARC 5.1 sony surround hometheater. Everytime i played the surround music eac3 files thru headphones via pc or my samsung S21, the music became less loudness, not loud, and sometimes the volume not consistent, it is need the tv and my HT. When i saw this could be a changer, especially in tv. But i have a lot question.
Question:

  1. Hesuvi can do: After saw youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WlqpG2euh50 with games demo comparing several virtualization. So the youtube is 2 ch stereo, it is recorded the fell from 8 channel that thru the hesuvi, played with several HRIR or i called some pattern to downmix with virtualization to 2 ch headphone. Thew original in google drive is the sound came with 8 channels pcm, unvirtualized. Correct?
  2. Hesuvi with OS plugin: Basically the OS plug in windows. windows sonic and dolby atmos it is needed to use side by side with hesuvi, or not after hesuvi amd equalizer aop installed. do i need to turn on the windows sonic, or just off, and use hesuvi hrir instead.
  3. OS plugin capability: Basically i dont know about windows sonic and dolby atmos plugin. how it play ec3 files, does it automatically emulate 5.1 surround or need direct 3d games only, does it need special music player. including atmos, does it same question. how it play with dolby digital content.
  4. Interface APO: My mobo i think just plain realtek ALC887. i use Earfun Wave Pro bluetooth for virtualization heasufi. Please add bluetooth headphone wiki. Does it capable for use virtualization heasuvi. Please add setting for bluetooth headphone in wiki. no speaker setup on bt. So i choose channel configuration 5.1 surround or 7.1 surround for playing heasuvi and emulating surround right ?
  5. Interface Hesuvi: The IRR common and others IRR wav, does it just click, no apply button. so when wav selected, it need restart audio service right. it is basically the pattern virtualization that showed in the youtube right, recorded and copied emulate from other proprietary virtualization. so just pick and restart right?
  6. Matrix Upmix: Stereo, checked or not checked, 5.1 checked or not checked. What condition i need to checked. example i use earfun wave pro bluetooth, i play test_surround.ogg or eac3 dolby 5.1 music test, then i must checked the stereo or not, or 5.1 checked. i am so confuse.
  7. Channels and player. i saw test_surround.ogg that included for test. it has 8 ch. if i had like dolby eac3 5.1 ch, does it know where channels to put ? i use mpv-player command prompt music player for testing, so i can see that wasapi 5.1 is used. any recommended player for surround music file. does hesuvi knew how to handle this channels with wasapi. do i need eac3 to convert it to plain 6ch or 8ch like ogg examples ? what Apply HeSuVi to Any Audio File for Mobile Usage is for? D:\Virtual3d>d:\portable\mpv\mpv.com test_surround.ogg ● Audio --aid=1 (vorbis 8ch 48000 Hz 768 kbps) AO: [wasapi] 44100Hz 7.1 8ch float A: 00:00:12 / 00:00:12 (97%) Exiting...

  8. For Bluetooth headphones, How-To Record Impulse Responses Digitally is same ? the recording device is same loopback or ... need a mic or what?
