Outlaw 7000x 7 Channel amp

Continuing on with as to why I am only getting sound from the 5.1 speakers in a 7.1 set up...

My source is a Amazon Firestick 4K adapter plugged into my Oppo 205. Through it I watch Netflix and Prime movies.
As I scroll through the movie selection I have not found any that show up as 7.1 on my TV info.

My Firestick is one of the original versions of 4K. So for about $50 I just purchased the newer (2018) 4K version from Amazon. In its write up description it does describe Atmos decoding.

When I get it I am hoping that the Firestick was the problem.
But, it could just be that Netflix and Prime are not broadcasting in 7.1

I hope I'm not just posting to myself.

I just got the new Amazon 4K Firestick and it too will not broadcast the Atmos 7.1 soundtrack.

Can anyone confirm that the Amazon Firestick 4K does allow for 7.1 or is it a non functioning sound format  on the Amazon Firestick?

Amazon help line is clueless.

The Outlaw is adequate as a surround sound 7.1 channel amp and I will keep it.
