With Kodi v14 my AVR (Yamaha RX-A3040) will display Atmos/TrueHD when bitstreaming TrueHD/Atmos tracks (Transformers 4).
However when I bitstream only TrueHD tracks my AVR only displays TrueHD.
As I understand it when bitstreaming Atmos the atmos extension is dropped and only the TrueHD core is sent to the AVR. However something else is coming along with it because my AVR is able to detect that the stream was an Atmos stream.
Looks like the LAV filter devs were able to implement atmos bitstreaming in their directshow filter. Perhaps an opportunity to share.
