I am thinking about getting amazon fire stick( cheapest one) unfortunately my projector has delby sound. i would like to get any advice about whether it works each other. this is my projector. https://www.amazon.ca/gp/aw/d/B07Y83T3XM/ref=yo_ii_img?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I even tried to contact seller to ask question but I can’t find seller information... Fire stick 1. Dolby sound is not supported. If there’s no sound, please turn off Dolby Digital in your device.(Settings > Display & Sounds > Audio > DolbyDigital Output > and then turn Dolby Digital (OFF); 2.When connect with iPhone, you need an extra Lightning to HDMI adapter (not included).When connect with android phone, an extra MHL-HDMI adapter (not included) is required. (Note: Android phone need to support MHL function) see less Edited December 25, 2019 by Sakurachan Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1390447-fire-sticks-dolby-sound/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon H Supervisor Posted January 17, 2020 Supervisor Share Posted January 17, 2020 avoid the Fire Stick. It's overly unstable and starts restarting on its own at random after awhile. I got one last year and it started doing that after a few months; got my free replacement sent to me in November and the replacement started doing the same at the beginning of this month. I've talked to a few co-workers that have a fire stick and they've experienced similar issues with theirs. I had the 4K stick I'm not sure about them though. It's cheap for a reason it seems; I'm betting it overheats damaging itself over time because there's no ventilation for the chip. I finally caved and purchased a Nvidia Shield TV and couldn't be happier; it's one of the top rated on the market for a reason. It runs great and has everything I need on it. https://www.amazon.com/NVIDIA-Shield-Streaming-Player-Performance/dp/B07YP94PBJ/ It's a little more pricey at $149 but completely worth it for the quality; it even has a little internal fan for proper cooling/circulation, fan is completely silent too. Plus Nvidia Geforce Now game streaming on it is a good bonus Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1390447-fire-sticks-dolby-sound/#findComment-598514166 Share on other sites More sharing options...
