Default Re: Dolby Atmos - Do I need SRC?

The Cinema RMU needs to run at 24fps - just like the 'normal' Dolby RMU. The home theater RMU, on the other hand, will work at 23.98/29.97, and 25fps.

The RMU states that it only takes 48Khz 24fps.

This is from the Dolby Atmos guide:

By these directions, it seems like the RMU might accept both 48048K and 47.952. Does it?

II would love some input from users with a similar set up.

Thanks,
Buddy
