I´d like to buy Arc and Sub mini. I have TCL tv and Apple TV 4K. Will be Dolby atmos in films available in situation when I connect Apple TV to normal TCL HDMI port, and Arc I will connect to TCL ARC HDMI port? And I suppose, that when I connect Arc with Apple TV via Airplay 2, and play some film with Dolby atmos, this Dolby atmos will not be available?

The Arc will support Atmos via the eARC HDMI port, assuming the program being broadcast is in Atmos

In most cases, you need a TV equipped with HDMI eARC to play Dolby Atmos audio from the Apple TV 4K.

Likewise, no Dolby Atmos from Apple TV 4K. Running through HD Fury Arcana…
Make sure the Change Format setting on the Apple TV is set to OFF.
What exactly is your Atmos source?

Ah, cheers, I’ll check the Change Format settings Source is the Apple v 4K and HD Fury Arcana gives me the necessary connection between Sonos Arc and TV HDMI. Had Dolby Atmos until last Apple firmware update…

You may just need to reboot the TV, Apple TV, Arcana, and Arc.

Tried the reboot, no joy, still only getting 5.1, no Atmos. Saw something on another forum that Apple changed the output from their Apple TV that removed the Atmos throughput unless it was a direct link… can’t find it now though. PITA.
