dolby atmos for arc

Oh that’s a shame 

thanks for ur help mate

Just one more question 

By connecting the arc to the tv

does it automatically play 5.1?

for free view or Netflix?

If you want 5.1 audio to play out of your speakers, you need to make sure your TV is set to the proper settings to pass through 5.1 audio. You also need to make sure your source is actually playing in 5.1 audio and not stereo. I’m not sure if Freeview has a lot of channels that support 5.1 audio, but Netflix has plenty of shows and movies that are in 5.1.

Think my tv just says hdmi arc

What model LG TV do you have? I can send you the recommended audio settings.

According to my research, the LG B8 should be able to pass through Dolby Atmos audio.

TV Settings:

1. Be sure you have the latest firmware installed.
2. Be sure Simplink (CEC) is enabled.
3. Run TV Setup in the Sonos app and connect the Arc to the TV’s HDMI ARC port.
4. Under Sound, set “Dolby Atmos” to On.
5. Under Sound Out, Audio Out should be set to “HDMI ARC”.
6. Under Audio Out, Digital Sound Out should be set to “Auto” (or “Pass Through” if available) and Simplink should be “On”.

For some reason Dolby atmos is greyed out

but I think it’s all set up

Do you have the latest firmware installed?

Is Simplink turned on?

Does the Dolby Atmos option change when watching a Dolby Atmos source like a movie on Netflix?

FYI… you need a premium Netflix subscription to get Dolby Atmos audio.

So when I play a movie on Netflix with Dolby atmos

it says Dolby atmos on the sonos app
