    How To Set Up Dolby Atmos on Series X


    Hi All!

    I may just be missing something obvious, but I can't figure out for the life of me how to set up my Dolby Atmos on my Series X. I paid the license fee, it shows I have access via the app, but it says I have to plug my headset into the controller to set up. I don't understand how to do this. The only headset I have is official Xbox Wireless Headset that launched with the console, and I don't see anywhere to plug a 3.5mm into the headset, only USB-C.

    What strikes me as odd is when I first got the headset it worked fine, but I hadn't used it for months and pulled it out yesterday to use it again and the interface must have changed with the Dolby App with an update. I went into the app (as changing to Dolby Atmos in the System's settings wasn't working) and the only option I can potentially do for setup is via USB/wireless. Then I do that and it says it needs to plug into controller.

    How in the world can a headset that was ADVERTISED with Dolby Atmos in mind and came with a 6 month trial of it not have a way of setting up in the app?

    What am I missing? Has anybody else had this issue, and if so, how did you solve it?

    Thank you all so much!

    :)

    Will Microsoft every update the UHD blu ray player to be able to stream atmos?? It’s a joke

    Settings are all set up for atmos, the UHD player doednt support Dolby Atmos metadata. Highest it can do is Dolby Tru HD. The one x plays games - streams content from netflix, youtube etc in Dolby Atmos this is confirmed on thr TV and the Sound system.
    I have dolby access all my components are correct. I dont see why if microsoft have the license for Atmos (as its funtioning on all other aspects in tbr console) that they wouldnt just do a software update so the UHD player can. Looking at thr specs on tbe
    series x that still shows the new UHD player on the series x still doesnt put out dolby atmos. Needs updating

    No dolby atmos when streaming

    I have the problem that Netflix Dolby Atmos is not working with the x box S, if I try to play a series with Dolby Atmos, then Netflix give the text:

    This title can not play try later?

    Configuration is ok at the x box s and all other content without Dolby Atmos will play correct.

    If someone have a solution?

    How To Set Up Dolby Atmos on Series X

    Hi!

    So I tried your method, and it was still locking me out of the option to even select Atmos. What I did was then uninstall both Dolby apps from the Xbox, restart the console and then reinstall the apps. When I did that, everything worked just fine. So your method may work normally, but for my particular issue, reinstalling and restarting did the trick.

    Thanks a ton!
