Hi @Timcredible, thanks for writing about this. Could you let me know whether your Chromecast Ultra is connected to your home network via ethernet or wifi?

Hi @Lorenzo75,

Did surround worked before and does it work with other apps?
Surround is a bit of hassle to get working through optical if even possible on your setup.

I don't get it working om my setup because my TV doesn't have eARC for example.

Audio with tv App like netflix ecc is dolby digital, but audio from Ps4, stadia and switch is normal stereo. Its strange, because TV is able to send digital audio to the amplifier by optical cable, but when TV get HDMI signal from consoles it cannot send digital audio to the amplifier. I should connect consoles and chromecast directly to the amplifier by HDMI, but so i should change amplifier input every time i change source. Very annoying.

Same problem here. 4K and HDR supported surround doesn t. I tried to connect the support service they came with standard solutions I alrready had tried. Decives:

Samsung frame 2020 (supports 5.1, dolby digital and dolby digital+), Samsung dolby atmos N950, Chromecast Ultra 4K directly connected, Phillips Hue entertainement box

We dont have a avi reciever or something like this since we watch TV only online via chromecast. We watch Youtube and Netflix in dolby atmos (via the same chromecast) so no problem there!

FYI, I had to manually tell my av unit to do 5.1 sound.
