YouTube TV Now Supports 5.1 Surround Sound on Apple TV
Tuesday September 6, 2022 1:57 pm PDT by Juli Clover
YouTube TV on the Apple TV has been updated with 5.1 audio support, YouTube announced today. The updated audio works with compatible live, DVR, and video on-demand content that's watched on YouTube TV.
YouTube says that content that supports 5.1 surround sound will play in that format automatically when using the YouTube app on a compatible device, which now includes the Apple TV. YouTube TV users can check if content supports 5.1 audio by playing a video, selecting the More option, choosing the Bug, and checking stats for nerds.

I sometimes wonder if Google intentionally delays features like this for Apple platforms as a way to make them a "second class citizen" to their own devices. Why else would something as basic as surround sound support be delayed for so long?

Good so now I can't hear the voices on YouTube either!

I would rather have HDR support (Dolby Vision even better), which I believe the Apple TV YouTube app does not support.I believe the last update added HDR support and frame rate matching.

Finally, YouTube is sort of embracing the cutting edge technology of the 1970’s!
