Oh well...
No problem - there's a lot worse things to worry about at the moment.What a pants response.
Cheers for posting though.
Too true.No problem - there's a lot worse things to worry about at the moment.
What sound mode is engaged? Pure or Pure direct by chance?Small. Lfe to Lfe at 120 hz. Crossover at 250 at both the main settings and the 2 CH settings.

Hello everyone,
New here, had a question about my Denon x4500h and Dolby Atmos.
I have a LG C8 with an Apple TV 4K, and Oppo UDP 203, and 5.1.4 system.
The x4500h is connected to the ARC HDMI on the LG TV
Prior the receiver and speaker system, I had a LG SK9Y soundbar which did play Dolby Atmos.
With the soundbar, I was able to play Dolby Atmos from my 4K backups and backup MKVs (on an external drive) from the Oppo 203 to the soundbar. I was also able to play Dolby Atmos via Plex on my Apple TV and the LG TV.
However, whenever I try to play those same movies via the Denon x4500h, the system doesn't play Dolby Atmos, it shows up as Dolby TrueHD + Dolby Surround. Even when I play from the Dolby app on the LG C8 which plays Dolby Vision and Atmos demos, the x4500h only shows Dolby TrueHD + Dolby Surround and not Dolby Atmos.
When I turn off the x4500h, and play the audio through just the LG C8, I do get Dolby Atmos from the Oppo 203 and the Plex app on the Apple TV.
However, when I put a physical disc, I don't have this issues, it does play Dolby Atmos. It just doesn't show Dolby Atmos when I try to play from the backups that are on the hard drive via the Oppo.
I was wondering if anyone issues playing back their backups from external hdd via Oppo 203 with their x4500h? If so, could you guys please help. I would greatly appreciate it.
All the settings on the Oppo 203 are correct to the best of my knowledge. The audio output via HDMI is set to "Bitstream".
Stereo comes on by default. I've tried that and Pure direct. Same thing.
By the way, I'm running an external amplifier for the mains. Not that that should change things, but if it's a bug, perhaps it might be confined to this scenario?

Remember that whatever the crossover is set to your mains will still produce sound below the set crossover as it's not a hard cut off but slopes off softer. I believe (may be wrong) that the sub cuts of harder above the crossover setting.
Mine clicks but only when doing test tones but it doesn't do it during normal playback.Hi,
Over the weekend I’ve upgraded my 5.1.2 to 5.1.4. I changed the amp assign from 7.1+Zone2 to 9.1, but when I run Audyssey there is a audible click from the AVR as it changes from front heights to rear heights, this also happens if I run the 5.1.4 test tones demo from the Atmos demo Blu-ray and also the levels test tone from within the amp.
Is this normal or is there some other setting I’ve missed?

Mine does the same clicking noise when running the calibration tool and when using the AVR test tones, but not when playing media.Hi,

been running 9.2.4 for 3 months now.
Typo, corrected to 7. Good catch, thanks.The AVRX4500 can't fascilitate you with a 13 channel 9.2.4 setup. The receiver is limited to no more than an 11 channel 7.1.4 setup. The receiver can only process 11 channels of audio at any one time.
Edit: actually set to 4ch Height sp not Dolby sp.Mine clicks but only when doing test tones but it doesn't do it during normal playback.
When you say 9.1 I'm assuming you have floor at 5ch and dolby sp at 4ch.
guys I read that many of you before buying the x4500 owned the Marantz SR7010 / 11/12 are undecided between Denon and Marantz. in the home cinema the marantz has a more balanced and flat sound than the denon? Is it less dynamic in war actions? aesthetically I like both because you chose the x4500 to other models?ragazzi ho letto che molti di voi prima di acquistare l'x4500 possedevano la Marantz SR7010 / 11/12 sono indecisa tra Denon e Marantz. nell'home cinema il marantz ha un suono più equilibrato e piatto rispetto al denon? è meno dinamico nelle azioni di guerra? esteticamente mi piacciono entrambi perché hai scelto l'x4500 ad altri modelli?
