THEPROBLEM:

The issues arise when trying to set the correct settings to have Dolby Atmos enabled. I go into Dolby Access. Click setup , continue, and then "experience Atmos". It then changes the Sound format from 48khz 24 bit to Dolby Access for home theater, and Changes the Spacial audio from off to Dolby Access for home theater.

Then I can play some of the clips at the home screen of Dolby Access. Works great. But then netflix doesn't sound as good, and I lose rear speakers when playing music with Pandora and youtube. IT kills surround sound speakers for non atmos content.



So Am I supposed to set the sound format to 48khz 24 bit and leave spacial audio off? Am I supposed to wait for new drivers from AMD who knows about the Dolby atmos issues and has posted on this forum in september about it under another post? -software/can-t-enable-dolby-atmos-via-7900-xtx/m-p/588627#M1703...



Am I supposed to enable Dolby Atmos in Dolby access or setting sound format and spatial audio to Dolby Atmos for home theater in both areas? Is the amd driver causing the rear speakers not to play?



If I just set it to 48hkz 24 bit sound format and spatial audio off, All speakers work good and sound great but seems I am not getting Dolby audio/Atmos, but instead it says "PCM" when I check the playing stream through ... button on the LG remote.






I don't know how to get Dolby Atmos support on netflix on pc, but I can just use the TCL Q7 TV remote, go to netflix and do that instead. Setting it to 48h/24bit and going to netflix app still shows dolby atmos though. It seems dolby atmos works and enables for access atmos content videos, It seems netflix can see I have atmos, but I have spacial audio set to off and 48htz/24 bit selected instead of selecting atmos for home theater for both.


So am I doing it right. Leave sound format to 48htz/24 bit , spatial audio to off, and just let it sometimes turn on? Is this an issue with the AMD driver and sound driver the 7900xtx uses? In the future will an update come out that I can turn on Dolby Atmos in sound format and spatial audio settings and the rear speakers will work correctly, and the possibility of 5.1 surround be enabled instead of just Stereo,atmos,dtx:x? Please help me


IMPORTANT UPDATE: You must have Disable enhancement off or it will kill your rear speakers even with atmos content played by dobly access app. DO NOT do the windows speaker configurator. It messes it up, If you did, go back in, Select stereo, unclick full range speakers and click done or go to enhancements tab and click DISABLE!



I have atmos working, in everything except rear speakers during pandora or youtube. It works great on all atmos content, games, etc. I just need it to doe the correct channel /multichanne support . Both options are on in Dobly atmos Channel upscale and LG phone app Multistream enabled. But doesn't work.


Amazon has sold me a used laptop instead of a new one ?. I ordered the device on US Amazon with the delivery to Germany, and their support doesn't guarantee a full refund, including VAT and return shipping costs. While I am still thinking of what to do with it, I decided to reset the Windows to get access to the system. The previous owner not only left the OS locked before shipping it back to Amazon, but downgraded it to Windows 10 ?. Wifi drivers from Corsair's website don't support it. Therefore, I had to remove everything from SSD and install Windows 11 from scratch.


1. WiFi is as expected and should be way faster than 10Mbit/s, please try the driver from the download page first and maybe update after that, but newer isn't always better. is your router WiFi6 capable?


5. Please download "Voyager Hub" from the Microsoft Store - this is needed to show the cooling fan tab in iCue. If it doesn't show up, only way I solved this problem is to reset windows again and do it again. - if you can switch between the settings (silent/balance/intense), this is all you get.


@klehriker, thanks for your assistance - I have resolved all my issues, including the fans hub in iCue and wifi speed. Regarding the latter one, it appears the laptop is susceptible to the quality of signal - in case the mobile router is located 3 meters from it and behind the thin wall, the speed drastically decreases to single-digits Mbit/s. But in close proximity to the router, it's showing a reasonably respectable 70-100 Mbit/s. I assume it's not a driver-related issue but something with an antenna, perhaps?


When I select Manage Audio Devices > Sound > Playback > DENON-AVR High Definition Audio Device > Configure > Audio Channels I have to manually select Dolby Atmos for home theater, remind it I have Center-Sub-Side and Rear, not just Rear speakers and that the Front left and right are full range, not the surrounds.


I get tired of having to do this manually when it should remember my selections. Also, on occasion, Windows thinks I don't actually need that setup and reverts to Stereo (more often than not). I have to go back in and select Dolby Atmos for home theater manually. Every. Time.


What I would like is a way to identify which registry entry I need to isolate and run in task manager (for example) that reminds Windows of my actual setup so I can hotkey the task and get on with my movies/games/etc.


I need a way to lock in my choices without spending hundreds of dollars on a keep-alive signal device to fool Windows into leaving my setup alone. This is likely due to the computer being always on but the AVR power cycling or the LG screen using Smart Features that pull audio focus from the PC, bypasses the PC by sending Audio directly to the AVR (eARC, etc).


My PC (Windows 10 Home v10.0.19043 Build 19043), AVR, speakers and RTX 3070 are all Atmos ready and switches formats automatically from 5.1, 7.1 and back to Atmos as the signal dictates and all my digital streams (PCM vs Bitstream) and connections (HDMI 2.1, 8k certified cables, eARC for Dolby Vision, etc) are working fine. What it DOESN'T do is keep Windows from randomly sneaking in a "did you actually mean STEREO?" switcharoo which I aim to prevent if at all possible.


I have found very little in the way of help isolating this in REG and what I did find I couldn't achieve the described effect. I have used automated scripts that open, right click, select, tab up and down, enter, enter, etc., to put things back to Dolby Atmos for home theater but it requires focus and selection that I have to wait for it to finish before I can use my mouse again and it doesn't always work due to the everchanging sound environment that Windows detects and automatically switches for me - no matter what I do to prevent it.


Any info, links, scripts, apps or help pages will be appreciated. I'm very comfortable working with AHK (even tho it's taboo right now and I'm only a beginner coding with it) to achieve this effect but I don't have the necessary DLL calls. I'm also comfortable working with REG edits but again, I don't know which one achieves the entire setup I need to reinforce or the one needed to activate Dolby Atmos for home theater that I can use with Task Manager. I hope to achieve this without upgrading to Windows 11.


NOTE: I do NOT have an issue selecting default devices - never have and doing so does nothing to preserve which speaker setup I prefer and prevent Stereo from even being an option. I only have one Mic and one Audio output anyway so I've nailed the default device thing. It's the desired Speaker setup (no enhancements, only audio channels) I need to get working, keeping, checking and correcting as needed or hotkeyed for my issue to be resolved.


@adam deltinger Thank you for the suggestion. I'm trying to find a Microsoft forum to find my answer since the issue is with Microsoft software programming. The audio sites have no solution for less than $1100 and there's no software I can find or programmer that is willing to tackle the issue. If you know of a Microsoft forum you think could discuss this better please link it to me. Otherwise I'll let this fade away on it's own and keep looking.


My issue, I cant get my system to recognize which is the Dolby Atmos speakers? it plays both the side and rear speakers off the same (rear) speakers, with no way to adjust the Atmos speakers being on top of my FR and FR speakers= Definitive Technologies 9080x. It is driving me nuts.


A possible solution for you; I figured out I have to log out/put my system to sleep/fully shut down the computer before powering down my receiver. Then powering everything back on starting with the receiver. Its the only way I haven't had to reset sound settings each darn time.


@RoHCo Thank you for replying. Since this post I've tried a couple solutions including a third party audio switcher. Even with that, sometimes when I come back the audio is muted in the active window (game) with no way to unmute it without quitting the app and relaunching. Then other times when the entire computer is muted so interestingly enough, this week I ran the troubleshooter (again) and realized the last two times all it did was stop and restart the audio drivers. Well, I can do that. So I got my hands on this snippet of AHK script and it works just fine.








Note: While this may work as a standalone AHK script, I'm only quoting the part I added to my existing script so the opening lines and other functionalities in my master script are not shown here. What to put at the start of your personal AHK compilation would need to be researched to match your specific setup and uses.
