Turned out this was an AVR issue. Needed to change the speaker configuration to 7.1 in order to have all the speakers accessible to my hackintosh. Having the AVR in 5.1.2 speaker config somehow “hides” the .2 part from the signal chain. The AMS settings are still 5.1.2, but now the test tones...

I finally achieved what I wanted - it wasn’t a hackintosh issue at all, I just needed to change the speaker configuration on my AVR in order to accept 7.1 channels. Embarrassing. Essentially an audio routing issue. It seems having my AVR set up with a 5.1.2 config seems to render the .2 part...

Sorry Feartech, I have another question. Do I actually need the AppleHDA kext? I ask because I am just getting by with AppleALC and Lilu at the moment… Cheers!

Wow. Cycling through every possible layout ID certainly seems less daunting than creating my own! That is quite breathtaking. But I will certainly take a stab at it if nothing else works. Thanks once again.

It’s cool, I’ve reinstalled everything now. Wasn’t so bad on the 2nd run through now that I know the steps! :D I don’t suppose you could help me with another issue though? Is AppleHDA kext needed in order to get Atmos 5.1.2 working? Channels 7 & 8 are currently redirected to my rear speakers...

Used clean nvram. Still no joy. Presented with the white circle and a line through it when attempting to boot from the drive. Unbelievable. I cannot quite get over the fact that High Sierra has bricked this Ventura install for me. I’m going to have to install it again, sigh. I was just about...

Thanks. I’m trying to do this but I’m ROYALLY confused. When I was setting up, pressing the spacebar at the boot-picker screen brought up the clean/reset NVRAM options. Now pressing space bar does nothing. Even if I boot Opencore from my USB. :s Edit- ah I’m a dolt, I need to copy those Tools...

I had successfully installed Ventura. I booted up my old clover install of High Sierra to check some things. Now my Ventura drive won’t work, it was renamed “Ventura - data” at the Opencore boot screen. I’m sure there must be a simple fix, rather than having to re-do the whole install, but...

Thanks. It’s the AMS bit I’m having trouble with. I’ve selected the right config (in my case Atmos 5.1.2), but the last 2 channels are coming out of my rears instead of overheads. My intuition tells me that unless the AMS part is working, no app like Loopback will circumvent it. I’ve got a...

Thanks I will have a look! My set-up is exactly 8 speakers though, it matches. Hmm.

I feel a bit daft posting this. I upgraded to Ventura in order to use Atmos natively. I thought I was done after being helped on here to migrate from clover to opencore and then successfully and consistently being able to boot into Ventura. But I can’t seem to get sound to the .2 overhead...

I upgraded to two new M.2 drives, which makes isolating them from each other a pain. However after disconnecting my old SATA drives, I’m getting a far more consistent boot into Ventura now! Im not certain, but for all intents and purposes, I think this is solved! I will post another thread if...

I’ve had success with this! I’m surprised the migration assistant has worked as well as it has! However, there are some issues. Firstly, it seems that I have to boot up 3 times, though not always. The first 2 times I get black screen, then it seems to work on the 3rd boot. Yesterday when...

Thanks guys, I’ve updated my sigs wherever possible to include the new gpu.

Hi Edhawk No joy Updated SMBIOS to 19,1 and added agdpmod=pikera to boot arguments. Same result. Goes into verbose mode then I lose the screen. Left it running for over 2 hours in case it was installing something ‘behind the scenes’. Then restart, oc finds the Mac install partition, another...
