Sonos Arc and TCL Series 8 65Q825

I have the new Sonos Arc connected to my ROkuTCL 8 Series 8 65Q825. The Roku audio options are auto detect, auto passthrough, and Dolby Digital plus - DTS. I have the Dolby Atmos activation notification on.

Requesting assistance on correct setting to obtain Dolby Atmos.

Thank you in advance.

    Ed7 - I have the TCL Series 8 65Q825, Software 9.3.0, Build 4182-88, Roku platform. Dolby Atmos active streaming Vudu, Netflix, Amazon video, and Disney + via Roku.

    Wow I'm jealous I guess owners of the r617 and r615 are still on the quest to get our Atmos working 😂 if it would ever work ! Anyway enjoy your panel in good health 😊👍

    Hey there! solved my atmos issues with Tcl r615 by an additional Nvidia shield connected via hdmi, now i get atmos on Netflix and Prime. Disney+ on the other hand still has no atmos but i guess it’s a disney issue not the TV nor Nvidia.

    I own a TCL 8 Series 65Q825. After setting audio to (auto passthrough) in the Roku settings the following apps all work with Dolby atmos sound on my Sonos ARC.

    Netflix, VUDU, Disney + , Dolby, and Prime. Running Roku 9.3.0 build 4182-88

     

    (just incase you all were wondering if this model works or not)

      Finally I get Atmos on Disney+ on Nvidia shield , I just turned on the tv clicked on a starwars movie and bam! Sonos app confirms it's on Dolby Atmos DD+, no settings no tweaks it just worked . The Nvidia shield is fast , has games and upscales like a dream, additional expense but all worth it! Thanks and Godspeed everyone !

      Now that the new 9.4 firmware is out - can anyone confirm that the eARC works and that the Sonos Arc works well with the TCL 8 Series 65”? 658Q25

      Confirm eARC works and Sonos Arc works well with TCL 75Q825 to include Atmos playback. TV audio setting is set to auto detect.
