TvOS#: 17.2 (21K5348f)
Server Version#: 1.32.8.7639
Player Version#: 8.28 (7384)
LG G2 Audio Passtrought / eArc / Bitstream
LG Soundbar Atmos with eArc
The Apple TV is plugged on the eARC hdmi on the TV
My issue : DD+ Atmos content is not recognized on the ATV’s plex app. To be very clear, I don’t try to play DTS-X or DolbyTrueHD Atmos, I know perfectly that can’t work except in Infuse App.
Here a sample with a random Atmos movie :
- Codec EAC3
- Chaînes 6
- Bitrate 768 kbps
- Langue Anglais
- Language Tag en
- Audio Channel Layout 5.1(side)
- Sampling Rate 48000 Hz
- Titre ENG VO : DDP 5.1 Atmos
- Display Title Anglais (EAC3 5.1)
- Extended Display Title ENG VO : DDP 5.1 Atmos (Anglais EAC3)
And a photo with player debug on plex

Some additionnal informations :
- direct play from local network
- old video player : off (i tried on/off, nothing change)
- old audio player : off (i tried on/off, nothing change)
- i use SRT, no PGS, so there is no transcoding in anyway, absolute direct play
The same movie triggers Atmos on my Soundbar when i play with Infuse, all working properly here.
Do you have any ideas ?
