Apple TV 4k gen 3 with Sony HT A-5000 sound bar

When I connect my Apple TV to the soundbar, I can’t get HDR. When I connect directly to the TV, everything works, but I can’t get Dolby from the soundbar. It makes no difference how I set up the HDMI port on the soundbar: standard, enhanced, or enhanced 120h.


Is there something I need to change on the Apple TV? Or is there a setting I’m missing on the sound bar?

Apple TV 4K, tvOS 16

Sounds like it is directly linked to the passthrough when connected through the soundbar. If it says it supports HDR then refer to the manual for troubleshooting, and you may need to contact Sony for further assistance if needed.
