I thought they were supposed to have 5.1 by now. I’m only getting stereo on my ATV4K.
I was sampling sever movies like Judy, Arrival and Signs. Even though signs is a bit older I should be more than stereo.It depends on the programming. Not everything is 5.1.
I’m having trouble buying that. The studio couldn’t do better than stereo for Arrival?It depends on what the studios deliver. I think the James Bond movies are 5.1.
I'm no longer surprised by what studios deliver to streamers.Ok, Judy was Dolby Surround but the other two are only stereo. Another thing I noticed was that every time it took a half minute for HD to kick in. It looks like bad SD when first starting. I’m not noticing that with other streamers. It looks like Hulu is behind in technology.

That was my assessment. I signed up for a year at $1/month a while back, and I still felt like that was too much for the service I received. I didn't notice much about available audio, but I had constant buffering issues with Hulu that I don't have with any other streaming services.It looks like Hulu is behind in technology.
Of the major streaming services, they are almost always behind the times. Even Paramount+ now offers Dolby Atmos for one or two titles, as long as you have an Apple TV 4K.It looks like Hulu is behind in technology.
I decided to double check some stuff. Yeah, Arrival is two channel. You can tell just by looking at the summary page. If it says nothing, it's two channel. So I looked further, and it seems to make no sense. This is Us (NBC) is 5.1, but Ordinary Joe (also NBC) is two channel. The Conners (ABC) is 5.1, but The View (also ABC) is two channel. Then, current, original stuff, like The Handmaids Tale is 4K HDR 5.1. That last one makes sense, but the rest doesn't.I’m having trouble buying that. The studio couldn’t do better than stereo for Arrival?
This is interesting...I just checked mine and can't find anything that isn't in ye olde 2 channel stereo, including shows mentioned in this thread as being 5.1 Assuming there isn't a hidden setting somewhere? I remember when Paramount+ was still CBS you had to manually turn on DD+ every time you launched the app.
Hulu says they support DD 5.1I thought they were supposed to have 5.1 by now. I’m only getting stereo on my ATV4K.
I turns out they do have it, but a lot of the programming is still only stereo. I’m so old I remember when stereo was the latest thing.Hulu says they support DD 5.1
