Best video player for TrueHD Atmos 7.1 audio? - woobadoobadoo - Jun 22, 2017

So apparently VLC isn't capable of playing TrueHD Atmos 7.1 audio so I am looking for the best alternative, anybody got any recommendations?

The new version actually does support TrueHD>3. You probably need an update.

Don't think it does.

I know that it does and their website says it does. What version do you have? Are you sure the video you have is actually what codec you think it is?

Link me where abouts on their website it says it does? I am absolutely sure what audio type it is, considering VLC literally tells me. Also when I google, all I see is forum posts of VLC not supporting it and I looked into the VLC change log and can't find anything about supporting TrueHD Atmos audio.

Says TrueHD >3 right on the page

Those forum posts are old.
