LG is adding support for Samsung and Google's new Dolby Atmos rival to some of its TVs — but it won't use the name, just the sound

Update: LG has contacted TechRadar to clarify that while its TVs will support the spatial audio technology that Eclipsa Audio is based on, it's not part of any licensing agreement to use the name Eclipsa Audio. The underlying tech is called IAMF, and LG will support this, so video labelled as being in the Eclipsa Audio format should work fully on LG TVs — but LG isn't using the name Eclipsa Audio anywhere, so it won't be identified as such in the settings. The rest of this article remains as originally published.

LG is adding support for the Eclipsa Audio format to its 2026 models, as well as to certain 2025 TVs. This is an alternative to Dolby Atmos, delivering spatial audio over streaming, and was notably developed by Samsung and Google.
