Hello All
Please excuse me if this has be covered. I could not seem to find in as it pertains to my exact issue.
I have the Panasonic DP-UB820 and the Denon AVR X4500. When I select the Dobly Atmos audio on any UHD Blu ray (Godzilla King of Monsters, for example), The 820 seems to output TrueHD and when I look on the Denon, I do not see Dobly Atmos, only Dobly TrueHD. I have done the factory reset on the Panasonic UB820. Set the audio output to Bitstream and tuned off Secondary audio output as suggested from many members from this super helpful forum. As a point of reference, I am also using an Apple TV 4K into the {Media Center INPUT} of the Denon and am getting Dolby Atmos from Disney Plus, Netflix, etc. The Panasonic is connected to the {Blu-Ray INPUT} and I am using just the HDMI out on the Panasonic labeled (Video and Audio). I have that output set to Auto and the Audio output set to Audio only on the Panasonic. Is there some other Denon setting that I need to check on the Denon AVR to decode and display Dolby Atmos from the UB820 from the Blu-Ray input? Is it possible that particular input (Blu-Ray on the Denon) would not be able to decode the ATMOS signal? Im pretty new to this ATMOS thing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
I'm two weeks into owning my 4500 (will provide review shortly). For Blu Ray and Apple TV 4K I've configured Settings buttons so they always come on as Pure (yellow button) so that the native source soundtrack gets played on the AVR and Dolby Atmos will show for appropriate disks. I can then choose to up mix 5.1 soundtracks if I want to. For Sky Q I've set to up mix with Neural:X but that might change if we get more Atmos soundtracks.
