Atmos
A Osprey user on Facebook said he had Atmos sound on ch 104. He also showed to picture of his audio receiver with Atmos shown. Does anyone know anything? I’m a streamer with Roku tv and Atmos soundbar but no Atmos signal on ch 104.

That is a great question. To enjoy Atmos audio technology on Channel 104, you'll need a Genie Mini 4K, which you can get with us. Stick to the upcoming 4k content updates with your DIRECTV Via Internet service. Thank you for choosing us! Saula, DIRECTV Community Specialist

The posted specs for the Gemini Air (dongle format device that is now in beta test) indicates it supports Atmos. The spec page for the Osprey/Gemini does not, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that it doesn’t. And they may or may not pass Atmos encoding on 104 to any particular end device - they could to Osprey/Gemini but not Roku. Unfortunately, they do not do a very good job of documenting what specific capabilities are offered on each of the platforms. So until you see it show up or they explicitly say something (which is unlikely - comments from DIRECTVhelp not counting) there’s probably no way to know for sure.

The Facebook post I saw was a guy who said he had “the box”, he posted a pic too, I asked him a questions but no answer. My Roku tv and soundbar are Atmos. I get a Atmos light on my soundbar when a signal is detected. Never got any signal from DTVS only from Max and others! Thx
