I would love to be able to watch and hear the Netflix Atmos titles as they become available, but I don't have a 2017 LG OLED ( mine is the 2016 B6V, hooked up to a Denon AVR-X3400H ) and I don't want an Xbox.

Is there another option/streaming box that will fit the bill?
 
But it relies on the device at the other end of the chain ignoring standards as well and that opens up a whole world of manufacturer support hurt, I'm surprised LG have been able to get away with it.

**Edit: Reading around it does, in fact, look like Yamaha, Denon et. al. aren't particularly happy with LG at all (Probably as much over possibility of lost revenue as people look to upgrade to receivers with HDMI 2.1 on ;) as much as the abuse of current standards)

Don't get me wrong I think it's great that LG have found a way to innovate with current tech but it does set a bit of a risky precedent and a "Wild West" when standards are ignored.


Funny you should mention Denon as one of the manufacturers not too happy with LG. My current AVR-X3400H is due a firmware update to enable eARC over HDMI 2.0 ;)
