Dolby headphones icon , Belle FP1 - WHEN IS IT ON/...

After updating to Feature pack 1 , there is an option to turn dolby digital plus . It comes in the form of an icon when listening to something with headphone connected.
The icon is bright and when clicked it turns darker, but I dont seem to understand which of those 2 situations means off and which means on.
Is it on when the icon is bright (meaning, the bright color means "it's curreny on") 
OR
Is it on when the icon is dark (meaning, the bright color means "if you click it, it will be on")
it's very unclear to me and for no good reason. Symbian is a good OS, unlike other phones, in Nokia Belle, holding on an icon brings up the icon description - what it's supposed to do and solve these kind of misunderstandings. But in this case, holding the Dolby Headphones icon just brings up the words "Dolby Headphone", in both cases: Holding the icon when it's bright, and also after clicking icon, meaning, when holding icon when it's dark.
Do you understand my intention? There is a dilemma here, on a broader scale it's because it's unclead if the shape of a button (for example, being bright) means it's what the status is currently now, or if the shape of a button is the action, meaning what the status WILL BE after clicking.
For example, the PAUSE button is an icon that shows what WILL BE after clicking . So I want to assume that it's the same with dolby, bright color means "click me and i will turn on." But it could also mean " I am on, click me to turn off ".
Hope Nokia would be smart to update that icon's description to be "Turn Dolby Headphone on" and "Turn Dolby Headphone off". This would clear confusion.
Thanks for you help .

ok thank you very much, if a mod sees this and approves this answer - please lock it. (So if  you're a curious reader from google and this thread is locked, the answer is above my post )

  • Video player in Belle FP1???

    I just saw this picture here, the video player is unlike the one I get on my 701 (with Belle FP1).
    Or does that depend on the video file format?
    OR is that what we'll get in a future update.
    ORR is that what we should have got, but Nokia decided to cancel that, and continued the old stlye?

    Hey Santathe1, Welcome to the Nokia forums!
    Where did you find this photo? It could be that the device in this picture is using a custom UI or an application of somekind which has a different interface when playing videos.
    The UI you should be seeing should look like this
    I hope this has helped

  • Nokia 700 and Belle FP1 (Product Code 059L5V1)

    My unlocked Nokia 700 (Product Code 059L5V1) never got the Belle FP1 upgrade, and so far hasn't got FP2 several months on from release. Can someone from Nokia advise -
    1. Why not - it's unlocked, and so far I've used it on both O2 and Vodafone Contracts
    2. It's a UK model to my knowledge
    3. When am I likely to get it / how can I get it.
    I was fobbed off with FP1 and so far all requests to Nokia have again been fobbed off with a combination of "it's your network provider" or "it will be soon" - this was months ago. Now that there are no longer any (to my knowledge) Service Centre's in the UK that isn't an option either.
    I've always been a loyal Nokia customer - but this is really starting to annoy me now (and the lack of support on this matter from Nokia).
    Please can one of the Nokia mods / employees look into this and advise what is going on here ?

    hi mate,
    sorry to hear your frustration. the way it works is that your phone has a product code. now, if your phone is a branded handset (e.g. Vodafone with all their custom wallpapers and apps), then you need to get in touch with them regarding availability of the update. it may be the case that they have not approved the update, even though Nokia has contacted them and said here you can have it.
    in the other case, your phone is a country variant (which is what it sounds like to me), and is dependent on your region's Nokia Care approving the update and making their own customisations to it. it happens sometimes, but the regional Nokia doesn't approve the update, and therefore it is never released to the end user. this is an unbranded handset. therefore, unbranded is different to having an unlocked phone. you will need to persist with your Nokia Care in this case regarding the update: http://nokia.com/support
    You know I've heard those lines so many times it's beginning to sound like cut-and-paste.
    The fact that he mentioned PRODUCT CODE in the subject line is a fair indication that he knows that his phone has a PRODUCT CODE.
    My 059L5V1 is a country variant which was both unbranded and unlocked.  It now has the 059G2D1 generic EU FP2 firmware on it.  I'm not allowed to say how I achieved this, or I'll get banned.
    If it wasn't for the fact my 808 is so good I would have given up on Nokia by now.

  • HELP: S10-3 Audio Problem - Dolby Headphone

    I have recently purchased a Lenovo S10-3 laptop.
    One of the features that I noticed is virtual headphone surround sound by Dolby.
    The problem that I have is that when I enable it, the volume becomes unbalanced. The left headphone speaker plays twice as loud as the right one. The sound quality is much better with it on and I really want to use it, but I cannot because of this problem. I tried individually adjusting speaker volume, but there is a significant loss of audio quality and surround effect if i do so, not to mention that the sound then becomes unbalanced again if I use the volume control.
    I am using Windows 7 and the Win7 Drivers supplied with the laptop.
    TL;DR: Left Speaker Louder than Right with Dolby Headphone Surround enabled.

    This happens with any and all headphones.
    My Realtek Control Panel looks different from that picture.
    My one looks like this. (for both versions of the windows 7 driver)
    The driver from the website is version 6.0.1.5989
    The driver supplied with the laptop is version 6.0.1.6113
    I am not sure whether this feature exists in earlier drivers and whether the problem exists in Windows XP.
    My ancient PC sound card only works properly in XP, but I would not expect a new PC to have problems with windows 7 drivers.
    Below is the closest matching image that I could find online. While mine looks slightly different, this is the feature that I am having problems with.
    Link to picture
    The feature works similarly to Creative's CMSS 3D, but in addition to expanding the sound, the centre channel (L+R : Vocals and bass) seem to be panned to the left, and that is the problem.
    The driver from the website does not have this feature. It seems it was included in the newer version, but not coded properly.

  • Any hardware with app to watch DVDs using Dolby Headphone?

    I love (and sometimes by no other choice) to watch DVDs on my laptop (in this case my new MacBook Pro). I've good set of Bose headphones but I really miss the 'surround sound experience. Googling, I found a small hardware device - http://www.audiotrak.net/optoplay.htm - from Audiotrak that plugs into a USB port and seems to offer Dolby Headphone technology... however, although the specs say that it will work on a Mac it looks as if the only included app for playback is a Windows app called "WinDVD Player" and the product seems somewhat dated: it's USB 1.1 and it says that it works with "Mac OS 10.1 or later".
    Does anyone know anything of this product - or other similar products - that are small and portable, have licensed Dolby Headphone technology, and would work on a MBP?
    Watching a movie on a small screen (in 'normal' size - full screen, to me, looks pretty bad. But the worst thing is the sound I'd just like for it be be more realistic... it's fine for "South Park: Season Seven" but rather blows when watching a flick in which the sound is supposed to be part of the experience...

    Yes, I do wish someone who knew about how DVD Player and Macs with digital output function would jump in here and clarify things! If you go to DVD Player Help there's one section - "Selecting the audio output for a DVD movie" that tells you how to set up DVD Player Preferences with the optical out jack... my GUESS is that the actual decoding is accomplished via the home theater system, although the jack could be connected to the "Logitech Z-5500 5.1 THX Speaker System" and accomplish he same ). And there are likely dozens - if not hundeds - of digital speaker systems out there that do the same.
    Oh - and just as an interesting side note, I found an old reference disk and DVD Player played Dolby Digital (through analog headphones and MacBook Pro speakers) just fine... and also played DTS although the warning sign that came up on screen said "In order to playback the DTS Digital Surround Sountrack, you will need a DTS ready DVD player with DTS digital output connected to a DTS decoder." OK, fine, I have that in my living room... and although neither Dolby or DTS sounded anything like the Dolby Headphone surround sound that I get when I jack in to my Denon AVR-4806 receiver, the sound differences left and right channels was obvious and there was a 'center channel' effect. Odd. I'm going to have to find one of my newer disks and see how newer audio formats are handled.
    I really DO wish an Apple Sound engineer would jump in here! Maybe one of the folks responsible for DVD Player (yes, we take it for granted... but thanks for the new audio and video controls in Tiger! Sure would be nice to have Dolby Headphone available - particularly on laptops - on we who are always on the road!)

  • N8 Update Symbian Belle FP1

    Is update for Belle FP1 available now for N8? I heard somewhere that it will be released in June 2012. There's already a video about N8 having the FP1 update. I tried updating thru Nokia Suite but its taking a veryy long time just to check for update, i think its past 1 hr already. 
    is there an alternative way to upgrade? we have no wifi here so i cant update thru my N8.
    Updating thru Nokia suite is becoming a pain. i dont know why its taking so effin long. its not downloading yet its just on checking status.

    Ray, by periodical update do you mean never? Since there has not been a firmware update (belle) for my E7 since feb 2012.
    By periodical I mean one should check for updates from time to time to see if any are available. Would you not consider the recent MS Apps and Upload to Skydrive as updates for Belle?
     You are correct in that the last major update was back in February and Nokia have confirmed that there will be further updates to Belle devices, but nobody knows when or how many.
     It's likely that Belle was the last major update the first gen phones will get, and any further updates are likely to be bug fixes, general improvements and such like.
    All the best.

  • Belle FP1

    Hi all. Does anyone know the rollout dates etc for "Belle FP1" in NewZealand?

    I have a 701 which comes with Belle installed as standard and which I bought after reading reviews of FP1 which had already been released in Europe. A few days before I bought it Nokia announced that the rollout in Asian countries (including Taiwan) had started and Nokia's Taiwan web site had started advertising FP1 on its 701 suppoft page. Three months later I still don't have it. Nokia care has confirmed that no customer in Taiwan has it but has not yet been willing to state even an intention of ever getting to me or any other customer here.
    When I have asked why they continue to advertise in on their web site without a clear intention to deliver it I have not got a straight answer. I am waiting for another call-back now. Let's hope for more luck this time.
    I had read lots of stuff about Belle and Australia, but hadn't realised that New Zealand was in an even worse position.
    Best of luck.

  • Mkv format MOVIES not running on belle fp1

    Hi frndz,
    It is so irritating that I cannot play any mkv format movies on my nokia 603.
    It is a totally time consuming process of converting the movies into supportable format.so ,NOKIA please provide us any MKV MOVIE PLAYER like that of andriod to resolve this issue.

    Nokia Belle FP1 supports MKV playback. MKV however is not a video encoding but a container for a combination of audio and video files, usually MPG-4 video and AAC for audio.
    That said a MKV container you use on your PC or Mac may not play on your 603 because the encoding is too high. For use on the 603 it would be advisable to use an encoding using the main or baseline profile with a level of upto 3.1
    You will find several tools online which will allow you to transcode your video files to an encoding which the 603 will be able to play.

  • Ipad mini. no sound. volume control shows headphone icon. no headphone attached

    Hi, I am having trouble getting any sound out of my mini, which is on IOS 7. The volume buttons show the headphone icon but there is no headphone attached. What do I need to do to get back to normsal? I cannot see any setting?
    I have had my mini for a year with no problems.

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
    If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

  • Office 2013 - Incorrect Icons In Taskbar When Apps Running

    Hi,
    I have a a strange issue relating to Office 2013 (all apps in suite) in our school based Windows 7 domain environment.
    When students login and run any app from the office suite they launch correctly and are able to be used.  However the icon that is displayed in the task bar for say, Word, is not that of Word but is the icon for Database Compare 2013.  Powerpoint
    as another example always displays the Publisher icon.  If you right click the icon the options available also refer to the incorrect app, so instead of an option to bring the Powerpoint app to the forefront it says Publisher.
    The incorrect icon is always the same one for each app whenever launched and is the same for all users.
    We have updated Windows and the Office to the latest patches.  Possibly worth noting that we are running this config on Apple iMacs using bootcamped Windows 7 but I don't personally believe this has any bearing as it's only Office related.I have search
    for instances of this issue and see there is a hotfix for incorrect icons when in a remote session rather than physically logged onto a machine.  I also see references to deleting the icon cache for the user but local user profiles are scrapped on the
    machines here when the student logs off.
    Any help or pointers are greatly appreciated.
    Kind Regards
    Radar.

    I've reviewed screenshot from you initial post on Answer forum.

    Since the icon shows fine in local but only incorrect through RDP session, I am thinking this might not be the promblem of Office application self. RDP session might not load the correct icon for Office duo to the file permission or wrong path.
    Better to post your question to forum for Remote Desktop Services (Terminal Services)
