Knowing which combo to go for, whether 5.x.2 vs. 5.x.4 vs. 7.x.2 vs. 7.x.4, then when second amp/AVR is needed, how to set up primary and that second amp/AVR properly (both connections and AVR menus settings). Not to mention, actual install of height speakers and wiring.
I am hoping that we get ATMOS and X 11.1 channel check clips, but guessing not due to the several configuration possibilities.
I am a little confused about what you are saying. My receiver has been ATMOS ready since last year (it does not have the DTS-X firmware yet) and my NUC under Kodi v 17.0 has no problems sending the Atmos Soundtracks (the base Dolby TrueHD 7.1 and the second Dolby Digital Soundtrack) to my receiver to decode. In fact I have been listening to Dolby Atmos soundtracks since last September, 2016 without any problems.
Are you saying that your NUC/KODI combination has not been sending the proper soundtrack information to your receiver?
