Ever hit play on a movie expecting that
0:01
cinematic punch, but the sound just
0:03
didn't pull you in? You're probably
0:05
missing out on Dolby Atmos. In this
0:07
video, I'll walk you through how to
0:08
enable Dolby Atmos on Netflix so you can
0:11
finally experience movies the way
0:12
they're meant to be heard. Immersive,
0:14
detailed, and theaterlike. If this video
0:16
helps you out, give it a like so YouTube
0:18
shares it with others. And consider
0:20
subscribing for more easy, no fluff tech
0:22
guides. First, let's talk about what
0:24
Dolby Atmas is. It's an advanced
0:26
surround sound technology that makes
0:28
audio feel like it's coming from all
0:30
directions, even from above. This
0:32
creates an incredibly immersive sound
0:34
experience that traditional surround
0:36
sound just can't match. Imagine hearing
0:38
a helicopter fly over your head or rain
0:41
falling all around you. It's that kind
0:43
of realism. If you want to know the
0:45
difference between Dolby Digital and
0:46
Dolby Atmos, you can consider watching
0:48
this video which is being displayed in
0:50
the top right corner. Don't start
0:52
watching it now. I'll remind you at the
0:54
end of this video. But before diving
0:55
into settings, you need to make sure
0:57
your equipment is compatible. If you're
0:59
using a smart TV, check if it supports
1:01
Dolby Atmos. Most modern TVs do, but
1:04
it's always safe to confirm on the
1:05
manufacturer's site or by checking for
1:07
the Dolby Atmos logo on the box or
1:10
product specs. The same goes for your
1:12
speakers or soundbar. Not all soundbarss
1:14
support Atmos, so look for models that
1:16
mention Dolby Atmos or DTSX support. For
1:19
example, systems like the Viioner's
1:22
5.1.2 and two immersive soundbar are
1:24
built specifically for this. If you're
1:26
using a streaming device like Fire TV,
1:28
Apple TV, or Nvidia Shield connected
1:30
straight to a soundbar or AV receiver,
1:33
your TV doesn't need to support Atmos.
1:35
Your audio gear does the heavy lifting.
1:37
Even older TVs can get that sweet Atmos
1:39
sound with the right setup. Quick heads
1:41
up, Netflix only gives you Dolby Atmos
1:43
sound if you're on the premium plan. If
1:45
you're not, you won't get Atmos. Just
1:48
log in and check your plan in the
1:49
account settings to find out. Lastly,
1:51
make sure your device settings are set
1:53
up right. Some Gear auto enables Atmos,
1:56
but sometimes you'll need to dig into
1:57
the audio output or surround sound
1:59
settings and manually turn it on. Easy
2:01
win once it's dialed in. When it comes
2:03
to finding Atmos content on Netflix,
2:06
just search for titles that display the
2:07
Dolby Atmos logo. You can also filter
2:10
the Netflix library to only show Atmos
2:12
compatible titles by using the search
2:14
bar or browsing Netflix's supported
2:16
devices page. Here's an important part.
2:18
Make sure your TV and soundbar are
2:20
connected using HDMI RC or E A. ARC
2:24
handles basic surround sound, but E A is
2:26
much better. It gives you higher quality
2:28
sound and works faster. If both your TV
2:30
and soundbar support E ARC, definitely
2:33
use it. You'll get better audio and be
2:35
ready for the future, too. If you're a
2:36
gamer or someone who streams actionheavy
2:39
content, Atmos can make a big
2:40
difference. You'll hear footsteps,
2:42
gunfire, and ambient sounds from
2:44
directions you didn't think possible,
2:45
giving you an edge and making gameplay
2:47
feel ultra realistic. Also, don't forget
2:50
mobile users. Some newer iPhones and
2:52
iPads support Dolby Atmas playback
2:55
through compatible headphones like
2:56
AirPods Pro or AirPods Max. It won't
2:59
match a full home theater setup, but
3:01
it's still a noticeable upgrade in
3:02
immersion. And that's a wrap. With the
3:04
right gear, the right Netflix plan, and
3:06
a quick setup, you can enjoy real Dolby
3:08
Atmos sound at home. All the product
