Een compacte 4K60-source die with both models werkt.
This streaming solution is often used for Netflix, Disney+, Apple TV+, Prime Video and other apps. Correct HDMI and audio settings prevent Dolby Atmos from being reduced to stereo or compressed audio.
Arcana extracts audio from the HDMI signal before a TV or projector can restrict it. A compatible soundbar or receiver can therefore receive the best available soundtrack while the video signal continues to the display.
Arcana is sufficient; Arcana 2 is only required for additional outputs or future HDMI 2.1 sources.
Cable order: Chromecast with Google TV 4K → Arcana HDMI IN → HDMI OUT to TV/projector + eARC to soundbar
Use this route when 4K60 is sufficient and you need one video output.
Cable order: Chromecast with Google TV 4K → Arcana 2 HDMI IN → TX0 to TV/projector + eARC to soundbar
Use TX1/HDMI audio when a second display or HDMI receiver is required.
Arcana is sufficient; Arcana 2 is only required for additional outputs or future HDMI 2.1 sources.
Only use EDID, scaling or lip-sync corrections afterwards when the standard route demonstrably does not work.
The settings above are the starting point. These are the things that most often go wrong on this specific device.
This device streams; it does not play discs. That means its Atmos always rides inside Dolby Digital Plus, which fits comfortably within plain ARC. If you only use this source, eARC gains you nothing — the Arcana still earns its place by stopping the TV from re-encoding or downmixing.
Under Display & Sound the surround setting has an automatic mode that sometimes settles on stereo. Setting the formats manually, or forcing the automatic mode to re-detect after the Arcana is in place, resolves a surprising number of ‘no Atmos’ reports.
Still not right? Work through the troubleshooting pages — no Atmos, eARC falling back, lip sync and a black screen at 4K120 are covered there step by step.
