Sound Bar LG SJ9 Atmos Soundbar

Got this soundbar LG SJ9, when trying to set up the soundbar, it all gets connected and working, to make Atmos sound work on the soundbar through the Xbox I have to go to Blu Ray (4K Movie) settings and check the option to let the receiver decode audio,
but when I play a normal blu ray movie, i got a message saying that I have to uncheck this option, also when trying to set up the Atmos sound option on my Xbox says that my System (soundbar) doesn't support the Atmos sound even though when playing a 4K movie
the soundbar works fine (with the option to let the receiver decode audio checked).

Any suggestions ?

Dolby atmos not recognizing sound bar

I have also got the same issue where my Xbox one s does not recognise my LG sj9 atmosphere soundbar for outputting atmos to, I downloaded the Dolby app and I keep getting error 0x80bd0038 when I try to turn atmos on in sound options on Xbox. The annoying
thing is I only brought the xbox to stream Netflix atmos programs on.

 

Xbox One X Periodic Audio Cut Out - SJ9 & Atmos

I have the same problem, but my Xbox One X pushes Dolby Atmos to non Dolby Atmos movies. Also my Xbox pushes out HDR to non HDR movies. It's very frustrating that the sound cuts in n out even when I play Shadow of The Tomb Raider that's Dolby Atmos. Even
Avengers Infinity War sound cuts in n out. Since I have a Geek Squad warranty, I took my LG SJ9 to Best Buy. They tested all Dolby Atmos scenarios and never once did they have a problem with the soundbar in Dolby Atmos mode cutting in n out. There's something
wrong with the Dolby Atmos signal the Xbox One X uses that the SJ9 has problems decoding.

 

Hey mcolinm! How are you connecting the console to the soundbar? Post back and let me know!

I have the same problem - I have my Xbox one S connected to my ATMOS enabled LG 2017 TV and then to the Atmos enabled SJ9 via ARC and neither sound output is recognised as supporting Atmos by the Xbox when I try to enable it as the bitstream out format.
A direct connection of the xbox to the SJ9 via the HDMI in connection also fails. Bitstream out with Dolby digital works fine.

Atmos works fine from other sources.

Thanks.
