[β] AngryPancake@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 year ago (3 children) How can we set volume of music, SFX and voice separately, in games but not in movies? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [β] Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.de 20 points 1 year ago (1 child) In games these categories of audio are calculated and mixed locally in real time, for movies they are mixed down to a single track and compressed ahead of time. These days having three audio tracks would not be a significant problem, compared to the high resolution video track. But I guess the industry never changed. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [β] SupremeDonut@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago I could already hear the forums filling with desync complaints permalink fedilink source parent [β] gens@programming.dev 9 points 1 year ago You could on laserdisk, but dvd got more popular permalink fedilink source parent [β] epicstove@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago (2 children) Because a video game is a program that can change it's behavior as it's running.

BD players never implemented such a feature that I am aware of. permalink fedilink source parent [β] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago You can record multiple channels, you already have left and right recorded separately.
