i have Q9FN and HW N850 Atmos Soundbar

 

when using Netflix App on the TV, i went into Expert Audio Settings and it lets me select "dolby digital +" for audio ouput

 

the hw n850 sounbar supports Atmos

 

yet when on netlfix still only get crappy 5.1 sound

 

ive owned a sony xf9005 recently and their netflix app gives Dolby Atmos sound using "dolby digital +" , yes it is "lossy" dolby atmos but still sounds much better than DD 5.1

 

so my question is why are Samsung not updating their Netflix App to have Dolby Atmos. i have what is required here, dolby digital + selected on q9fn and atmos capable hw n850 soundbar. this is all thats required for "lossy Dolby Atmos" same as you get on 2018 sony & LG tv's

 

come on samsung, please sort this out by updating to a atmos capable Netflix APP version. its all thats needed

 

its bad enough having no DTS after spending £2000 on your tv & sounbar, the very least you can do to keep customers a little bit happier is Fix this one

I have the same problem on my 2018 model as I mentioned before. No Atmos with ARC with Netflix. However the problem is in the app not the TV, since it works perfectly on the Plex app with Atmos. 

Ha en skön dag!

Well works perfectly for me with the app, which is fine, maybe an app issue with 2018 tv, but with the Q90, works no problem. Get atmos all the time in the app. The only way you will get atmos is have dolby digtial + turned on, but normally the tv selects it automatically when you have an atmos source

I dont know why such a simple thing is so hard for people. Have your set hdmi settings to plus and turned on atmos compatibility as this must be turned on to get atmos, dies no one read the ebook manual on the tv? All explained?

Hi

I have Samsung q9fn and Sonos Arc but I can't stream atoms content from Neflix. It only shows 5.1.

I have tested with the Plex app on the tv and tried to stream Atmos content and it works fine.

 

Anything new on this issue?
