  • [x] I have read the CONTRIBUTING document.

This adds the ability to select Atmos streams. As long as your Kodi setup allows EAC3/DD+ passthrough, you will get the Atmos bits passed through to your receiver.

I have verified with my receiver/soundbar (Samsung K950) and the Atmos indicator lights up!

It seems to also allow selecting the new, higher quality audio streams (see https://medium.com/netflix-techblog/engineering-a-studio-quality-experience-with-high-quality-audio-at-netflix-eaa0b6145f32).

This was verified on a Xiaomi Mibox 3.
