ATMOS TRUE HD

Post by HMB001 »

The video files run without audio (silent) for all my ATMOS True HD files. Is this norma? Does MrMC on fire tv support this kind of files using audio passthrough?

FireTVs do not support bitstream of HD audio codecs. It is a limitation of the device, not MrMC.

This is interesting. I recently played Atmos labeled shows from Netflix on my FireTV Cube, which were correctly identified by my receiver. Has Netflix found a way to lift the restriction you mention?

streaming services use Atmos with EAC3/DD+, not an HD audio codec e.g. TrueHD.
