  • In the latest Apple MacOS Sequoia developer beta, a new option to bitstream passthrough of Atmos audio over HDMI is available in the TV App and others. What does this mean? How does it work?

    Bro why didn't you test MacOS Firecore Infuse with a Dolby TrueHD bitstream MKV rip from a Bluray Ultra HD ISO or remux? Who knows maybe DTS bitstream will output?
    Like The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare 2024 2160p UHD BluRay REMUX HDR HEVC TrueHD 7 1 Atmos @ 70 gigs .
    If this just passes lossy Dolby Digital Plus Atmos it is a fail.

    • @Techthusiasm

      I can give Infuse a run, but I assumed it won't do anything different until it gets some sort of update at least and given this just hit, it's too soon.

      @Techthusiasm thank you Louis Rossman is ok with "downloading' content you own for optimal playback.
      Imagine a M4 MacOs with enough GPUs from AAA gaming and loseless 7.1 audiophile playback from Apple Music Classic. Etc.
      Sony PS5 Pro won't be able to catch up.

    Hope this is ported down to TvOS where it's most needed. I love my AppleTV 4K but it's biggest downside is it being unable to passthrough any Dolby format to my AVR and doing all the decoding itself, sending the AVR just multichannel PCM.

    I’m curious what happens when you go to the midi settings. Can you now go above 8 channels? While not a huge deal it would be cool to see REW now able to send signals to all your channels as opposed the 8 channels it’s limited to now.

      Hamza-yu1ur has an important point that a lot of folks don't understand. You can get lossless output with Infuse, yes. Just not Atmos or DTS:X. Decoding TrueHD and DTS-MA to PCM 7.1 is lossless output.
