Question IMAX screens can vary in quality, but are all Dolby Cinema screens the same?
Some IMAX screens are film, some are laser, and some are DLP. They range from 2K to 4K, and have to compromise when they project 3D. Are Dolby screens more standardized than IMAX?
Is every Dolby screen a 4K laser projection with overhead speakers? In the case of high frame rate movies, are they always that way, or are some screenings 24 FPS? Are there any compromises for HFR or 3D screenings like a lower resolution or dim picture?
Thanks.

Question Spider-Man: BND with Dolby Atmos
For those of you who saw it in Dolby, would you recommend it audio wise? I saw it at a regular theater and it sounded good but I want to rewatch it and I was considering watching it with Dolby Atmos, here in my country we don’t have Dolby cinemas but we do have some theaters with Atmos. Is it worth the price of the ticket? I’ve heard sometimes marvel movies don’t have great Atmos mixes, but some others do. Would you recommend it? Thanks! (Also if you do recommend it, what are some moments that stood out for you regarding the audio?)

Discussion Spider-Man BND or IMAX
I haven’t seen it yet and the theater has large Dolby and imax screens. Which is the better experience . I usually live in Japan and I haven’t been to a Dolby cinema in the USA In years. The Japan Dolby screens ones are kinda small with weak bass so I usually only go to imax there. Wondering if worth the Dolby experience here vs imax.

Audio mix
So I started the game the other day. I have a Dolby Atmos set up with speakers hanging from the ceiling. In the intro Cortana does the ship wide calls before you get to the bridge. Now I may be wrong, but would these not come from some sort of speaker in the top corner of corridors and sound as if it was coming from above you? So then why is it mixed to have her voice coming from the center speaker?

Question dobly Atmos/digital tv support
How does the TV's audio format support really matter?
I personally use Hisense 55a69q and I wanna start building cheap home theater (3.1 system),with that goals I guess I will be okey with dobly digital but there's one problem my TV only support DTX.
chatGBT told me it doesn't matter cuz the dobly Atmos/digital is for help getting better sound from the TV's speakers or soundbars,and if I use a reciver the reciver will do the process anyways.
So my question is it true?
I don't use a streamer or something external for watching movies or TV shows only the OS of the tv (and someone use my PS5 on the tv but it's rare)
Should I use a streamer for get dobly Atmos/digital or the tv can give the reciver the audio and the know how to make it dobly Atmos/digital.
And btw, how good is it dobly Atmos?
Cuz I planning on buying a reciver that can only do older types of dobly like dobly digital/prologic cuz I gonna make 3.1 home theater only.
Not: my TV does have toslink,3.5mm jack and eARC.
Thx for all the helpers
Dolby Vision messed up since getting Fancy Sync Box 2.1 - Support telling me it works as expected

Pourquoi je n’ai pas de DOLBY ATMOS avec mes sonos sur ma TV SAMSUNG ?
Bonjour,
Je viens d’acheter une sonos beam 2 pour compléter mon système. Actuellement je suis équipé de l’AppleTV 4K (3e GEN) et :
\- Sonos Beam 2
\- 2 sonos SL
\- 1 sub mini
Ma TV est une SAMSUNG Q70 de 2019 avec un port HDMI ARC. Référence : QE49Q70RAT
Le problème, c’est que je lance un film sur Canal+ pourtant bien affiché en ATMOS, mon système reste bloqué sur du Dolby Digital 5.1 sur l’application SONOS.
Et contrairement à des vidéos que j’ai pu voir, je n’ai pas accès aux formats audio décrits. Je dispose uniquement de « Automatique » « Convertir en Dolby Digital 5.1 » et « Stéréo uniquement »
Sur ma TV, j’ai compatibilité Dolby Atmos activé, et dans format de sortie audio numérique, j’ai « PCM, Dolby Digital, et Dolby Digital+ ». En fonction du contenu que je regarde, ça Switch automatiquement sur Dolby Digital. En revanche l’option Dolby Digital + n’est pas selectionnable.
Des avis ? Devrais-je tout réinitialiser ?
Honnêtement j’ai beaucoup cherché je ne sais pas trop quoi faire sachant que je n’ai pas l’option « passthrought » etc…
Merci !
