Hi, HDR support is awesome in Firefox 100.

Any good plan for Dolby Atmos support? Link here for HTML5 browsers support spatial audio:

So far it's only Edge on Windows and Safari on macOS supports it.

Yes, please add support for Dolby Atmos playback on Firefox

Would love having Dolby, seems like a feature that should be on every browser!

Dolby's slides are 2 years old and no new browsers have added support 😞

I'm not a big Mac person, but normally the user needs a license.  I don't know if those other browsers are reusing something built in to the OS (which Firefox could do too) or if the parent companies had a license deal already (and Firefox would need to buy one or ask for one too).

I'm all for this (and voted on it), but I came here to ask if Atmos headphones audio/video sync issues (adds 100-200ms latency) were Firefox's fault or each separate company's?  I've seen it on a few different websites if I turn on the Windows 10 Dolby Atmos headphones virtualization (costs a license from the Microsoft store, or you can trial it for a few days for free).

Yeah, isn't this a really over-engineered proprietary standard? I'm an audiophile with really nice equipment, but I would never push these types of gimmicks.

I'd rather have other more straightforward and standard multi-channel audio supported: https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/support-multi-track-audio-selection-language-tracks-mono-stereo...
