    Hi, I'm new to this and am trying to create a few fun rides with a 3 dof H3 from dof reality. I want the kids to use a VR head set but would like to playback audio through our 5.1 reciever that is HDMI out from computer. Does anyone know if Ride creator can record, process and play 5.1 audio?

    Thank you!!

    Hi @Ola Shaw,
    Video Ride Creator does not change the original video format, so that won't be a problem with the audio.
    The problem I see here is, the Video Ride Player does not support VR yet.

    https://www.xsimulator.net/community/marketplace/simtools-v2-video-ride-recorder.203/
    Do you mean the Video Ride Recorder? if so, then i believe its set for stereo.
    But I bet I could add a 5.1 option in the future.
    Once SimTools v3 is out and running, my plan is to combine all the 'video ride stuff' into a single app also.
    So i will be redoing all the video stuff in the future anyway.
    I'll make a note and look it over when i get there!
    Take care,
    yobuddy
