[INFO] Plex, 4k, transcoding, and you - aka the rules of 4k

Nobody NEEDS anything about this whole thread.

Plex does not transcode the ATMOS at all.

truehd+atmos transcoded to EAC3 has NO ATMOS AT ALL.

only streaming providers have dolby digital + atmos, which many new tvs and streaming devices CAN play.

truehd+atmos IS NOT dolby digital+atmos.

and just because truehd/atmos > eac3 7.1 is good enough for you, does not mean it is good enough for anyone who does want the truehd/atmos.
