Hey guys, I recently discovered that my tv (LG OLED 65 C8) doesn't support Dolby Atmos in his video player when streaming from my media server, where all my rips are stored. As I've got myself an Atmos soundbar (LG SK10y), I'd like to ask for your recommendations for players that can play 4k Blu-ray rips with Dolby Atmos (up to 60fps). I heard the Nvidia Shield TV is able to do so, but how reliable is it?
Have a nice day

Jonas

You could use a Pi with
OSMC. Or if you want 4K playback capabilities a
Vero 4K+ is a great little media center.

I recommend
Zidoo Z9s. Decodes (passthrough) Dolby Atmos (via HDMI bitstream), DTS: X, Dolby Vision and HDR. All-in-one and it works

I use an nvidia shield for all my media play ack anymore. Supports everything I have thrown at it, including dolby vision with atmos blu-ray rips. It supports everything and if you use plex, it also is one of the only devices that supports direct play of every audio, video, and subtitle format. Have no complaints with it. Just have to hook it directly into your soundbar or av receiver for best audio support.
