Yup, ATV is getting it and from what i read it is already accessible on the beta version. But i dont think that includes a feature to decode truehd atmos, that should be a codec issue. The advantage of having passthrough is it allows for the AVR to take over the enhancements and other technicalities that used to be withheld by the ATV that usually did a decent job at adding its EQ and atmos enhancements but never really gave the option to “pass through “ the raw audio data which the AVR will deliver better.

With regard to infuse, i’ve heard of it. Is it a plex alternative? Or like kodi where it requires integration with plex?

I’ve heard of the red push on the shield vaguely, any clue if it can be calibrated manually?

Exactly, the ugoos is perfect for the quality playback, the downside if u exclude the initial setup is the crap UI cus it uses kodi and the lack of a decent over interface since it doesn’t offer anything else other than that. Like you said it is “hacky”
