Dolby Atmos apple tv

Doiby Atmos audio option does not appear in my settings. I have an HDMI from Apple 4K TV direct to my Atmos enabled audio receiver. I play Atmos on Blu-ray and via Disney + all the time via my audio receiver. I've updated my Apple 4K TV and it says I'm up to date on software.

What is your brand and model receiver?

Verify with the receiver manufacturer if the receiver supports the Dolby MAT format that Apple TV uses. Early Dolby Atmos capable receivers may need a firmware update.

That option will only be available if that capability is detected. It won’t work in combination with changed formats Dolby Digital 5.1 or Stereo.

‘Apple TV HD’ (A1625) doesn’t have Dolby Atmos functionality. You would need a 4K model: A1842 or A2169.
