Hello @westwayneguy88888 Thanks for reaching out about our Xfinity stream app. At this time it Dolby Digital 5.1 has not been implemented on our Xfinity Stream app yet. I have a link where you can provide your feedback suggestion to request it. This link is a great site for customers to share their input! https://comca.st/3czrDid.

Is there any chance you're using the Xfinity Stream app on your phone and using Chromecast to your TV and AV receiver?

It is absolutely absurb that xfinity stream doesn't support Dolby Digital 5.1 at the least much less Dolby Atmos. Dolby Digital 5.1 has been available since the early 1990's. Those of us that have home theater systems are paying a high price for poor audio. It's no wonder Xfinity is losing customers left and right. Most other streaming apps have minimum Dolby Digital 5.1 if not Atmos. This is unacceptable Xfinity. I've been a customer since 2005 with TV, internet, mobile and security but that's about to end unless your stream service updates to decades old audio. Like I said - it's absurb!!
