I have moved to Windows 10 and have a GTX 780 and an Asus VG278H.

I currently am running my sound through HDMI to an AV receiver. *This ends up being a two monitor setup since I need to use the dual link DVI for 3D.


When I install strobelight, it disables the audio over HDMI on my video card. Video over HDMI works fine. I get it back when I uninstall strobelight (reset the display).


Is there a work around or could a patch be implemented?

Also note that Strobelight.exe needs to be manually added to the startup in Win 10, but the strobelight does start up automatically even without the exe running.

I'm not the most acknowledged tech person here, but isn't hdmi cables somewhat limited in bandwidth matters? Maybe it won't support strobelight + audio. Have you tried Dual DVI cables or Display Port? They have far more bandwidth. DVI being only for video, DP for both video and audio.

The strobe light is going through the DVI connection. To clarify: I only have one monitor, but Windows assumes a video connection when using HDMI. You have to have both audio and video, so I get a 'ghost' monitor in my display setup. Either way, the resolution set to go through the HDMI connection is 1280x720x60hz. Nothing too crazy, and it is a 4k cable.
