I didn't find anything else since then. I'm using VBAN with a new emitter for Linux that someone wrote in Python and doesn't use a lot of CPU (which was the main problem back then for using a network based solution). I'd like to see your solution

Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Hero USB headers
RixzZ replied to RixzZ's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
I already have the MB but I didn't have the chance to build it (thanks to AMD 5000 stock), so no idea... Anyway, I checked the case and the two cables coming from the front panel have a place on the board, so seems like it'll work. -
I have one of those currently that I use to split the audio of a PS4. I could do as you say and split the audio from the Nuc, but I need a way to input that digital audio signal on my main computer where the USB headphones are connected. Maybe something like this could work to receive the signal...
-
Well, it works quite well. It has some delay but nothing to serious. The audio quality is way better that the crappy USB to Jack adapter that I had until now. The main problem is that Spotify goes mad when using the audio interface provided by pulseaudio with the network configuration. It can play songs, but the UI becomes unresponsive and ends up freezing (without crashing) I'll have to see if I can fix that. Thanks @anothertom

Yeah.... you are right on that. I saw a few good options considering only Windows on both sides. What I mean is that in my setup, pulseaudio on Linux is not a problem. It just works. Anyway, I'm trying that solution right now, and is not looking too well
-
Good find, thanks! I already tried something with pulseaudio a while ago, but the Windows part was the difficult one (although there are a few compiled binaries for Windows...). I'll try the way specified on the post. Yeah... that's the thing. Is 'a bit' overkill for my intended usage and not a cheap one either. I thought that I couldn't be that difficult, but seems I was dead wrong. Thanks for the ideas!

Thanks for the reply. I really looked into this from every way I could think of: ways to transfer the signal over the network with low latency (I didn't know about those two alternative you suggested), ways to transfer it with a cable: Toslink? I would need a SPDIF IN interface, which seems to be something a consumer sound card doesn't usually have (and some are limited to 2.0 on the interface). USB? I didn't find a way to send or receive a signal over USB directly. USB to Toslink to USB? Maybe the most promising one, but I would require an external sound card on both machines with SPDIF-IN and OUT support. Network options seems to be where most alternatives are available. I find hard to understand why every standard way of outputting audio from a computers seems to force you to convert the signal to analog, but that's what I'm coming to realize. Asking here is one of the last options I could think of, so I hope someone can come in clutch with some idea. Anyway if I find anything else I'll make sure I update this.

Hello. I have a setup with one Intel Nuc where I have Linux and a desktop computer with Windows 10. I'm currently using wireless headphones (SteelSeries Arctis Pro Wireless) connected to the Windows machine (over a USB coming from their receptor). I get a enough audio quality this way with some kind of 5.1 emulation from the Windows computer. Now, the Nuc doesn't have a proper audio output, just the HDMI connection that I could maybe split and pass the audio to other place, but I don't know how I could input that digital audio signal to my Windows machine to mix it with the audio coming from it, so both PCs could output audio to my wireless headphones. Right now I'm using a USB to Jack adapter on the Nuc and running a cable to the Windows PC line-in, but the audio is just awful. Is low volume, cracks everytime a loud sound plays and have a decent amount of white noise. I've been looking for a while for some way to transfer the digital signal directly (5.1) from the Nuc, but no idea how to receive it and be able to mix it on Windows. I also used for a while VBAN on Linux to send the audio over network to the Windows machine where I received the signal with VBAN Receptor, but latency and CPU usage on the emitter side made it unsustainable. Any idea on a way to archive this? Thanks!

Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Hero USB headers

Thanks @WereCat @mrdoubtfull! I'll try it out then! -
Hello. I'm choosing parts for a new PC and was planning to use this motherboard and the Corsair 4000D Airflow case. In PCPartPicker if you select this two components, a warning appears saying the following: I'm finding little information about this case, but seems like it needs two USB 3.2 Gen 1 headers for the front panel (it has one USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C and one USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A). Now the Crosshair VIII Hero motherboard is listed on the ASUS site with the following under the USB section: 1 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 front panel connector port(s) If you continue reading the specifications, there is also a section of Internal Ports with: 1 x USB 3.2 Gen 2 (up to 10Gbps) connector 1 x USB 3.2 Gen 1 (up to 5Gbps) connector support additional 2 USB ports (Is this suppose to be the same port named on the USB section?) I'm don't know about the compatibility between different USB Gens (can I connect the remaining USB 3.2 Gen 1 connection from the front panel to the 3.2 Gen 2 connector?) or if this other listed internal ports can be used as headers for the front panel. Anyone with this MB and case combination that can clarify it? Thanks!

I got NordVPN a few months ago and is really good. Key points: - A lot of servers with good speeds. - Different connection methods available. - Good clients for the main operating systems. They have offers everytime I check their website, so it's easy to get a few years of service for like 50 bucks.

Yeah, you can point any subdomain to the DDNS you already have using a CNAME. The only record you can't point is the bare domain, because it needs an A record. For the solution I proposed, you had to use a DNS zone provider with DDNS support.
-
You could try changing the channel of your 5GHz network. Each of them uses a different range of frequencies, so maybe the current one you have is not completely compatible with your adapter.
