Does DD Freedish support Dolby Atmos?

A DD Freedish viewer has emailed us at contact@freedish.in asking how to play Dolby Atmos on DD Freedish.

Here we are giving information related to Dolby Atmos in DD Free Dish.

Broadcast of TV channels -

As of today, January 22, 2024, no TV channels yet provide the feed of this premium audio service on DD Free Dish. Dolby Atmos requires a lot of bandwidth, as well as a license, and the content on the TV channel must be recorded in Dolby Atmos.

Set-top box with Dolby Atmos -

As of today, January 22, 2024, there are no free-to-air set-top boxes that specifically support Dolby Atmos. This is because Dolby Atmos requires additional bandwidth and licensing fees, which would not be possible for free.

Converting Dolby Atmos audio -

Today, January 22, 2024, no extractor or converter can convert Dolby Atmos to analog.

A tip - If you want to experience surround sound, you can use old technology Prologic converter, these are easily available in the market.
