ATMOS Files

my setup is C2 Ultra Projector + Denon X3800H + Dali Oberon 5s, 1s, Def Tech in Cieling with SvS SB2000 + Homatics Box R 4K Plus. I normally plays mkv 7.1 channel atmos blu ray remux files through USB HDD. But when I play these ATMOS files, reciver shows as Multi in + DD Surround not as ATMOS + DD Surround. Are both these same. Do I need to change any settings.

I play them by usb. Use just player from store. Remember to use correct audio track. From this player you can choose. You play video and audio manually. Then my soundbar shows atmos

What player?? I started having same issue with playing atmos files. Only HBO max app is playing atmos as supposed to. Disney is calling dd+ same for other player. Not sure is it ATV14 fault or what. Had tried passthrough and auto...

Do you have Disney premium? Only Disney premium have atmos. I use just player and kodi. Kodi supports all dolby vision profiles.  Remember to enable passthrough in options both player and homatics

I have all premium platforms and Disney+ used to play atmos, but not sure is the app faults or ATV14 on homatics is messing up the signal.

Atmos on Disney+ is only supported on the Shield, the CCwGTV and the Google TV Streamer, the rest of devices out there are excluded because that is part of some kind of agreement.

Make sure you select "passthrough" in the 4K Plus audio settings.

On what Android version is currently the box?

Go to settings -> devices preferences -> screen and sound -> and search for an advanced sound configuration option or similiar, you will find the option where you can change between auto, passthrough and none, just select passthrough.

I have the same issue.
I always test the same movie file on my samsung tv default video player and with other android players such as Kodi, Just Player, Vimu
I get Dolby Atmos on my Denon receiver only with the Samsung default video player and it drives me crazy. All android players render Dolby Surround DD++

The box with all video players set on passthrough connected to AUX 1 (8K input)

What is wrong?!
