Windows 10 Film & TV App working with Dolby Atmos
Hi, new to the forums, not sure where to put this.Just sharing my findings, problems and successes when watching 4k Atmos content from PC Windows 10 to receiver.My setup is:
Onkyo TX NR-787
Sony X900E 55"
Intel 8680k Windows 10
GTX1080
When I ran VLC bitstream audio, the atmos setup would get screwed up.It won't ever survive a reboot.
However using the Windows 10 App Film & TV, running the BDMV or BDAV files through there works.M2TS works best I have found.
Anyone else have similar experiences?Please share. Welcome to the forum dajusta data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7

Mark. Do you have the Dolby Atmos licensed purchased from the Windows Store I presume so if the stock win 10 films app is correctly outputting Atmos.
Try MPC-BE instead of VLC to see if it's a VLC specific issue.
* click view->options
* select audio->audio renderer & set it to the HDMI directsound output
* select internal filters->audio decoders->audio decoder configuration
* under pass-through tick the box for AC3, EAC3 and TrueHD
Now try playing the a file that has an Atmos audio track and see if it plays, Atmos is just metadata on a TrueHD or Dolbyaudio track, the media player should pass the TrueHD track to the audio receiver as is. If there is a problem with directsound you can bypass that using the MPC audio renderer in exclusive mode.
