Incorrect info on kevin dubrow/quiet riot

[edit]

In the kevin dubrow page greg leon is mentioned as randy rhoads replacement. He was short lived, Bob Stefan from band satyr ( which included Chuck Wright) was the guitar player on the demos and up until they got signed, which he was then replced by carlos cavazo. Bob and Chuck were mainly committed to Satyr and were doing Dubrow as a side project/ money. When quiet riot got signed, spencer proffer did not think Bob Stefan had what it takes and fortunately carlos cavazo became available after the break up of Snow — Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.135.118.19 (talk) 04:01, 16 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

As long as you have reliable sources you are invited to fix it yourself. Wikipedia only exists because people like you have access to knowledge and wish to share it. --Jayron32 20:57, 16 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

But this is false statement. Could you update this.. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.172.7.102 (talk) 07:27, 16 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You can edit that yourself. Just click on the "Edit" label beside the title and correct the date.

Problem with Blu-ray sound

[edit]

I'm having problems with the sound o a new Blu-ray disc, but it may be some setting. I have the Blu-ray player connected to the TV with an HDMI cable. I get sound on the menu and on the bonus feature, but not in the main film. It as audio selections LPCM stereo and DTS-HD master audio - neither works. If I use the audio outputs from the Blu-ray player, I get sound, but the HDMI should be working. I tested another BD and it has three audio options: PCM stereo, DTS-HD, and Dolby Digital 5.1. It works only on Dolby Digital 5.1. So I can't get PCM stereo or DTS-HD audio to work. I've looked through the settings and I can't find anything to set. Any suggestions?

Is it possible that the Blu-ray disc only has Dolby Digital 5.1 ? I'd think the Blu-Ray player would be able to convert that to some other format (although not quite as good as if it was in that audio format to begin with), but perhaps that feature is absent or broken in your Blu-ray player.

I don't have many Blu-Ray discs. One has three audio options (PCM stereo, DTS-HD, and Dolby Digital 5.1) but it only plays back audio on Dolby 5.1. The other disc has the first two, but not Dolby 5.1, and it doesn't play back sound, except on the menu and the bonus feature. I have it connected to the TV with an HDMI cable. I've gone through the settings and I can't find anything to change. If I connect the regular audio output (phono jacks), I get sound. But I don't know why I don't get it with just the HDMI cable. I think that either the player is defective or I have it set up wrong. Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 03:39, 18 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I went through all of the setup options again and tried things - nothing worked. I told it to reset to the factory defaults - that didn't work either. Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 03:57, 18 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
See HDMI#Audio_support. If this is the issue, then the only workaround is to use the separate audio cables for sound. StuRat (talk) 04:05, 18 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think the TV is such a device. It is a flat-screen LCD TV that is about 5 years old. I went through the settings on the TV and there was nothing that could affect it. And I don't have the problem with DVDs. Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 04:24, 18 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Is it a premium model TV ? If not, they might have cut a few corners by using the HDMI to DVI conversion rather than accepting HDMI directly, thus causing this problem. (If anybody complains, they can just tell them to use separate audio cables.) StuRat (talk) 08:28, 18 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
It isn't a premium model - it is on the low end of the price range. Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 12:43, 18 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
