I assume these tracks claim to use frequencies that are inaudible to human ears but irritate raccoons. But most if not all lossy compression algorithms eliminate human-inaudible frequencies. So... yeah.

Not sure if it's still true, but YouTube used to only support 2.1 audio output.

In that timeframe, my compatriots were not aware of this and several of them upgraded their home theaters to 5.1 or better.

For some reason, the myriad videos on YouTube claiming to help you test your 5.1 setup never seemed to get the results they wanted ...

YouTube supports up to 5.1 now, still no 7.1.

This guy edits music into 5.1, which can be interesting. https://youtube.com/@5.1musicchannel

Good to know, thanks!

I assume no 5.2?

[–] bear@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 17 hours ago

You can always add a second subwoofer, assuming your hardware supports it. The second one is just going to mirror the other.

Thanks for a link I can try later; I actually just got 5.1 and so far the only thing we've heard is... weirdly, kids songs (which does indeed enrapture our 3yo).

YouTube may support 5.1, but nobody utilizes it. When watching YouTube on my TV. I literally never hear anything playing from any speaker channels other than left, right, and subwoofer. (I have a 5.1.4 setup.)

I've confirmed that 5.1 and Dolby Atmos works in other apps (even the ones I use for piracy, like Stremio and Kodi), so it's not my TV.

Does Spotify not have lossless audio? I’m pretty sure every track on Apple Music is lossless so I assumed the same was true for Spotify.

[–] B0rax@feddit.org 2 points 16 hours ago

They do have lossless audio now, like since a few weeks.

Anyway, normal speakers don’t go above or below human audible frequencies.
