"According to a press release, the partnership aims to address common viewer complaints, including picture quality that is too dark and dialogue that is too difficult to hear, which often requires the use of subtitles. Certain movies and TV shows available on Peacock are already available in Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision, and the platform was the first to stream Sunday Night Football in Atmos."
Peacock will integrate Dolby Vision 2, Dolby Atmos, and Dolby AC-4 across live sports and other content over the coming year. The rollout includes NBA and MLB broadcasts in Dolby Atmos and upgrades from Dolby Vision to Dolby Vision 2 for brighter, more vivid colors during live sports. Dolby AC-4 adoption aims to deliver spatial audio with less bandwidth while improving dialogue clarity. The partnership targets common viewer complaints about dark picture quality and hard-to-hear dialogue that often prompts subtitle use. Viewers with compatible subscriptions, TVs, and speakers will experience more immersive audio and improved picture.
