Samsung QN95A - Tidal Dolby Atmos

[Obsydian]

So was hoping the Samsung Tidal TV app which has Dolby Atmos content would actually play Dolby Atmos through my Samsung Q600 soundbar, but nothing.

Anyone else tried or is this another Samsung missing the point of HiRes Audio ?

Thanks I have checked all the settings previously Dolby atmos works fine with other TV apps like Netflix, Disney, Prime, indicated on the Soundbar display.

I got to work by using Apple TV 4K (2020) directly connected to Soundbar HDMI1 input and after Soundbar connected to Samsung TV by eARC HDMI.

Soundbar shows on display "Dolby Atmos" when Dolby content is playing.

Yeah, something with Atmos support in this app not working.

It works for me with app in Nvidia Shield connected to Soundbar and Hi-Res Audio gets more and more popular with a lot of Atmos releases. But for those without external media players it seems Samsung missed this one. Sad.

Atmos works in other apps like Disney+, HBO Max and Prime Video so I don't see why it wouldn't work in Tidal.

I have an LG 2021 OLED for the main bedroom, installed the Tidal app, Dolby Atmos works, the TV even has a confirmation box.

Well, LG and Samsung have totally different OS
