Just got the Vero4k+ and it’s been amazing. Compared to Kodi v18 leia on my Sony X90F TV, Vero seems to playback 4k mkv files smoother and more detailed without any issue. I have the vero4k plugged into my Samsung N950 soundbar using pass-through and its detecting a dolby Atmos audio stream.
The question i have is in regards the Vero4k+ information button on the Audio stream. It shows a string of characters such as TrueHD RAW RAW RAW RAW etc… " Now i know it’s getting an atmos signal as per my soundbar, just wondering if what i see is normal when seeing that info screen?
Yes, it’s normal. Kodi examines the streams and stores the information, but doesn’t check for 3D audio (Atmos or DTS:X) because the extra metadata might not appear until far into the movie. So, all it shows is TrueHD or DTS HD-MA.
You can get the extra information by naming your files differently, and put Atmos or DTS-X in the filename like in the Kodi Wiki.
