That's funny, since PS5 doesn't support Atmos at all and on Windows you need to buy a paid plugin to make it work for anything that's not a Home Theatre system.

(And even if you have a home theatre system, Windows games will still prefer outputting 5.1 / 7.1 PCM and mixing 3D effects by themselves).
I'd also be interested to hear where those Dolby Vision complaints for PS5 are coming from, I haven't heard anyone really say that despite HDR being debated quite a lot :)

You need to buy a license if you want things Atmos-ified (so HRTF) for your stereo headphones. It's basically worthless. You don't need to buy anything if your media player can decode and downmix Atmos to surround (like Windows Movies & TV). Home Theatre systems just get Atmos passed through to them if compatible, so they can then decode and downmix the positional audio according to your configuration. > Windows games will still prefer outputting 5.1 / 7.1 PCM and mixing 3D effects by themselves). I wish. If games have surround at all, it's usually only analog 5.1/7.1. You need Dolby Digital Live for a digital surround output in most cases (and that can be a PITA to arrange, e.g. patched Realtek drivers). DDL basically provides a fake analog output for software and then sends a compressed digital signal to your decoder.
