OREI eARC 8K Audio Extractor, Dolby Atmos Conversion Soundbar 4K@120hz 18G HDMI 2.0 ARC Support HDCP 2.2 8K Monitor, HDR, Dolby Vision, HDR10 Support Sonos Bose (BK-929)

Bought this to bypass my Xiaomi 4k laser projector which didn't allow Dolby Atmos. Initially didn't work, but after I contacted customer support and was provided instructions on how to get a firmware update, it worked like a charm.

Nice product, good customer support

I have a Tv it doesn't support Dolby Atmos and I have soundbar with Atmos support. With the help of BK-929 I can get Atmos audio from Fire TV stick

I purchased this product to connect my NVidia GPU (HDMI) to my gaming monitor and Atmos soundbar. This is an updated review. I had purchased this product and was originally dissatisfied with it and returned it. I am a PC gamers that was attempting to connect my NVidia HDMI port to my soundbar eARC port and my gaming monitor. My two concerns in my initial review was that BK-929 appeared to be locked to 120Hz even though I was on a 1440p display with much higher refresh rate. Adding custom resolution via NVCP did not work. Additionally, the BK-929 was using the EDID information from my monitor instead of my Atmos soundbar. This meant that the BK-929 telling Windows 11 I only had two channel stereo and no other sound formats were available. This was/is a common problem I found with units from other manufactures I tested. For years companies that created all these affordable "audio extractors" would only support users with televisions which accurately report audio formats. However, PC users were left out as nearly all gaming monitors don't have ARC/eARC. Orei actually read my review and reached out to me after I had returned the product and offered to help me find a solution with a firmware fix. The unit they sent out had an updated firmware that unlocked the 120Hz restriction and was able to support ~220Hz which more than adequate for gaming; however, it didn't fix the issue with unit only using EDID from monitor and not soundbar. I communicated with Orei support and they sent me an adjusted firmware that finally unlocked Dolby Atmos and DTS:X through Windows 11. Orei seems like a company that actually cares and are proud of their products. I'm excited that a solution for PC gamers wanting to use use their GPU's that already have the audio capability for Atmos and other formats finally have a product that will work with eARC connections to audio systems without needing a $400 adapter or an AV system with HDMI 2.1 passthrough. This is important as many of the smaller soundbars that are appropriate for a computer desk typically only come with eARC port and not HDMI input (ie: Beam G2/SB400). I'm unsure if the firmware fix was specifically made for me, or if it will fix the issue for everyone. However, if you're planning on using this device to connect your PC GPU to an eARC port on your sound device do know that Orei support is aware and has a solution for PC gamers.
