Trouble with playing movies with Dolby Atmos


Recommended Posts

Posted

Noticed that when I tried to play a movie using Emby that has Dolby Atmos, I get no audio.  I stopped the movie, went over to Plex and it played fine.  Went back to Emby and all of a sudden it worked.  Does Emby have issues playing MKV files with Dolby Atmos???

Hi.  What app were you using?

If everything in the audio chain supports both the underlying audio and the atmos layer, then it will support it.

Yeah that's exactly what my thoughts are.  But it was if no audio was detected at all because there was absolutely no sound at all.  When I went over to Plex it played fine....did that to ensure I wasnt missing anything.  When I went back over to Emby, it played fine.  I checked another movie later on and exact same thing happened....then went to Plex, back to Emby and played fine.
