I´ll check if we get the data in the manifest, if so, the possibility to add this for Android should be given.

audio is not crypted by DRM so maybe also in linux ?

[asciidisco]

It all depends on what we´re given in the manifest. to pass the ESN check fro Netflix, we need to send a User Agent that matches the decryption method used (which is the widevine lib extracted from the browser except for Android). So, if we´re lucky & Netflix is sloppy, we get the audio stream on other systems as well in the manifest file. If not (which I sadly believe will be the case), we only have a chance on Android.
Netflix just tightened their security measures in that regard, which we needed to adapt to.

ok thx for exmplain, i will keep corssed fingers :) anyway

[piotrasd]

i checked manifest and no atmos on linux :(
btw. what if we try libwidevinecdm.so from Android x86 or chromeOS and try on Linux ? could we expect on diffrent manifest ? (ofc if that libwidevinecdm.so we will able to run on linux)

[asciidisco]

Tried a couple of combinations & none of them gave me manifests with Atmos support. I guess they´ll figure this out depending on the device id given in the ESN for Android.
Closing this for now.

As far as I know Atmos is currently only support on theXbox One. I've just tried the native Netflix App on the Shield and it only offers me 5.1.

@asciidisco Use this ESN: NFANDROID1-PRV-SONYANDROIDTV2017-SONYBRAVIA=4K=GB and add this profile: ddplus-atmos-dash

Search by Atmos on netflix to get titles with Atmos support

@asciidisco, does @rguedes's remark help at maybe achieving Atmos support?

[rguedes]

@Wuschel-Wuschel last time I check, it works

[Ch1llb0]

Can you check again, please? If it works, can this be implemented in regular fashion to provide Atmos with all the Kodi-Netflix setups out there, @asciidisco?

[rguedes]

ESN didn't work. But if you add ddplus-atmos-dash to profile list, will works

[Ch1llb0]

That has to be done manually or can this be achieved with a neat little settings option for everyone?

[Ch1llb0]

@asciidisco, any news on this?

[irond13]

@rguedes Where do you set that profile?

[irond13]

@rguedes I've figured it out, and it works!

@Ch1llb0 I've submitted a pull request here: #678

EDIT: I've just noticed that this repo is dead, and the 'new' one already has Atmos implemented. 'New' repo here: https://github.com/CastagnaIT/plugin.video.netflix
