It definitely was NOT the Roku update! I got the update a few days ago and right after the update was done I went to P+ and everything was still only 2 channel. Yesterday I went to P+ to finish watching Gladiator 2 and as soon as it started I could tell that the audio was much more fuller than before and I checked the status of my AVR and indeed it was DD+.
So, of course it WAS Paramount that screwed up and of course they initially blamed Roku. Hopefully it will say corrected!
Editorial: I have a pretty good Atmos system with 4 overhead channels for a total system of 7.1.4 channels. But I must admit that many movies really don't take advantage of all the channels. Yes, there is sound coming from all the speakers but most of the time it's just adding to the overall sound and there is not very much in the way of real directional audio. Yes, some movies do have some directional sound but most don't. Gladiator 2, in my opinion, had very little directional sound. Lastly, I have read reviews of several movies in magazines and on line and the reviewers say the same thing - not much directional audio.
