Are any of the pi4 variants strong enough to stream 4k with atmos passthrough?

Even if I have to venture into nightly / test build waters?

EDIT: Googling around shows that there's librelec builds that can play large H265 10bit HDR files with passthrough atmos... so hoping netflix is less strenuous on the little board?

4k hevc with HDR and atmos passthough does work. But that needs hardware decode.
Netflix uses widevine which is software decoder (with decryption) which will be limited to 1080p
(use need a secure platform to be licensed for 4k widevine).
