Hi ​@Kadabriel, welcome to the Sonos Community and Happy New Year!

Thanks for sharing your experience with Sonos. As DTS:X isn’t supported, then there isn’t much we can do here. We don’t have any timeframe on when or if DTS:X will come to Sonos.

From speaking with a colleague, they’ve let me know that many Blu-Ray players do have the option to convert DTS:X to PCM, and some devices have the option to re-encode, you just need to adjust the player settings. If you use a Blu-Ray player, then change the settings to only allow our supported home theater formats, then set your TV to passthrough. This should allow you to get the best audio you can with your movies.

I hope this helps!

It converts it to DTS 5.1 but still it misses the height data. But i will cross my fingers and hope better DTs support in the future.

Anyway thanks for taking the time to answer me,  and have a great weekend!
