Derek I agree, it was exactly one year ago that Cheena announced:

"We are thankful to the NBCUniversal team for their support so that we can now provide you these advanced codecs for their new release titles. As for the updates on other NBCUniversal 4K HDR titles already available from Kaleidescape, we expect to process those as soon as we receive the additional files from NBCUniversal. COVID-19 disruptions make it difficult for us to set any expectations at this time."

While with Fox we are almost done, with Universal the issue is only partially solved. To be fair we are consistently getting immersive audio for all new Universal releases, partially only for resolution upgrades(Back to the Future, Jaws, Spartacus) and we "only" got a couple of older titles updated(1917, Hobbs & Shaw).

Covid-19 disruptions could still be a valid reason as studio priorities may have shifted. @Luke any update yo can provide with regards to Universal will be highly appreciated!
Hi @Kostas

No announcement at this time - we are still working to find a time when we can onboard these assets. As soon as we can we can offer updates on catalog titles, we will.

@steelman1991 quick note: Atmos is currently the only immersive audio codec NBCU has opted to release for digital titles. We'll continue to offer the best audio they make available on every title.

This is a great concert with almost all of his best songs, mixed very well too, probably by him, the most highly regarded remixer for surround music of many famous bands.

I am looking forward to watching this once I get back home. Glad to hear you liked it!

Now available for purchase
In the store the HD Version is 2:40 and the HDR Version 1:85 - the trailer shows 2:40.
Can anyone confirm if the HDR version is 1:85 or 2:40?
Thanks
