Cant un- select 'Let my receiver decode audio'

Selecting "Uncompressed 5.1" or "Uncompressed 7.1" in the Xbox One settings will mathematically give you the same lossless audio results as long as you are using an AVR with HDMI 1.3a or later spec. The only difference is that the Xbox One is doing the decoding
of the audio rather than passing the un-decoded audio steam to your receiver to handle the decoding.

I suppose, theoretically, it could improve the Xbox One's performance because it's not having to use any CPU cycles for the audio decoding. But you're not going to hear any difference as long as you are using and HDMI cable to connect to your AVR.

The issue is that when you select bitstreaming, the Xbox One will decode the HD Audio, mixes in its own audio, and then outputs it in either legacy Dolby Digital or DTS. Very old school.

If you select PCM output, the system decodes the HD Audio, mixes in its own audio, and then outputs it in PCM. I think most of us "audiophiles" would like the system to simply pass/offload the audio to our receivers so it can do the decoding. Something my
old PS3 has done for years now.

I would like this fixed.

Do you have it set to let your receiver to decode the audio or Xbox?

Try enabling "let my receiver decode audio" in the settings -> blu ray page on console. Worked for me, hopefully you too.

I had the exact same problem with my 4k Mockingjay and other movies. I enrolled in the preview program a few months ago just to get Dolby Atmos compatibility with my movie collection. At first the movie played with the Dolby Atmos track without problems,
but after the last update it stopped working. I quit the program and reset my Xbox One to get the official firmware with final support for Dolby Atmos but it kept showing an error.

A few days ago I was able to download the Dolby application which as Cpt Chaos 2 says outputs everything as Dolby Atmos. The problem is if I "Let my receiver decode audio" like Xbox support suggests for Atmos to work, then the error keeps showing up even
though everything else seems to work fine on Dolby Atmos, but if I uncheck the option to let my receiver decode audio it plays all of my BluRay movies without a problem with the dolby atmos light on, on my HW-K950. When I play the movie it sounds like it is
the actual Atmos track, and in the audio settings "Bitstream out" with Dolby Atmos is on, but the "Let my receiver decode audio" option is off in the BluRay app so I am confused. Is it enough that the XBOX is bitstreaming all the audio out to the Home Theater
even if the BluRay app has the option to decode audio off? Is my sound system really decoding the Atmos tracks even though the option is off on the BluRay player app but supposedly everything is outputted via the audio settings of the Xbox?

This is really confusing. I talked to customer service and they had no idea. They dind't even understand what dolby atmos was and told me that the problem must be on my movie collection even though I told them it used to work perfectly on my PS4 before I
sold it to get 4K and Dolby Atmos support with my Xbox One S.

I would really appreciate if someone could clarify this, because everytime I activate the "let my receiver decode audio option" on the BluRay app, a lot of my movies without an Atmos track show an error and even some with an Atmos track like Mockingjay don't
play either. I want to know if the bitstream out option really works on bluray movies even if the option to decode audio by my receiver is off on the bluray settings.

Note: BTW, I tried something weird, if I start playing Mockingjay with the "Let my receiver decode audio" option on it shows an error, but if I turn it off and it opens without problems, and then turn the decode setting on again, the movie resumes fine with
the "Let my receiver decode audio" option on.

Hi,

I have a similar issue in that my 950 won't output any sound if the "Let my Receiver decode audio" option is on plus the "Atmos (via HDMI ONLY). The only way I can get sound is to turn these two options off. I get good sound and it seems like it's still
Atmos but no blue light or Atmos message on the 950 display.
