Jellyfin Ubuntu Dolby Atmos HDMI passthrough - klaarnou - 2024-07-25

Hello there.

How do I enable Dolby Atmos passthrough through HDMI?

I use:

- Linux Ubuntu latest
- Jellyfin client latest
- Sonos ARC soundbar
- Nvidia GPU

Thank you for your help.

regards,

Bernard.

It depends on the client device. What device are you using? An Android TV device? Roku?

Hello Pirate man.

I am using Ubuntu linux on a PC.

The client is running on Ubuntu? Jellyfin Media Player running on Ubuntu? A web browser in Ubuntu?

I have no issue with ATMOS using the latest JMP  running from an Ubuntu(24.04) desktop on server version 10.9.8, this wasn't always the case. On JMP you need to go to Dashboard -> Setting -> Client settings and then configure your system to use HDMI passthrough. The settings in the screenshot work for me.
