Dolby Atmos on Arc

I have just purchased an Arc to replace my playbar. Everything is setup and viewing Jack Ryan on Amazon Prime, the TV app shows “Dolby Digital Plus 5.1”. I spoke to support and sent a file, which on analysing they confirmed everything was correct and the Arc was working correctly.

On reading other threads, they seem to suggest that I should be seeing “Dolby Atmos” rather than “Plus 5.1”

I am now confused and wondering if something isn’t working.

Using a Virgin V6 box, TV is an LG48CX, have Arc connected to e-Arc, V6 Box connected to HDMI in on TV. Sound set to HDMI - Arc, Advanced, set to - Sound out - HDMI Arc, Additional settings - Digital Sound out - Pass Through and eARC on.

Sorry if this has been done before :)

Also just noticed I’m currently getting Dolby Atmos whilst watching BT Sport Ultimate (connected through HDFury Arcana) so the V6 box is capable of outputting Dolby Atmos.

I literally only use the Virgin box for Sport as I dislike the UI

Yes, I’m getting Atmos on that channel too. I didn’t realise the TiVo box supported that audio format.

I haven’t seen atmos on bt sport ultimate yet. Might be the rugby I have been watching isn’t being broadcast with atmos, only getting 5.1

The Chelsea game that’s on the Tivo V6 BT Ultimate channel (531) right now is showing ‘Atmos’ audio here on our Arc/Surrounds/Sub.
