No Dolby Atmos or DD5.1 using Discovery+ app

[petex77]

I subscribe to TNT Sports through my BT account as good dela has have my BB with them.

Good that I can now view TNT Sports via the Discovery+ app on my Sky Q box and now getting UHD/HDR picture quality to.

However despite the program info showing Dolby Atmos, I can't get either Dolby Atmos nor Dolby 5.1 when viewing TNT Sports through the Dsicovery+ app.

Not an issue with my setup as Dolby Atmos works fine when wathing Sky Sports UHD through the same box.

Is this an issue with the Discovery+ app on the Sky Q box preventing getting the best sound.

Have managed to get Dolby Atmos previously when veiwing Discovery+ app on another device (Now TV 4k box).

Any suggestions on how to resolve this?

Me neither, its disappointing 😞

Thanks for confirming it's not just me.

seems crazy to keep a Now TV box running just to get Dolby Atmos or 5.1 but sounds like that's the only way to get beat quality sound.

Dissapointing Discovery don't have a consistent feature set between devices, given Sky Q is fully capable seems odd Discovery can't make their app offer best quality sound on it.

Dolby ATMOS has been very hit and miss recently on TNT Sports Ultimate on all platforms.
