Hi all sifu, I'm new to TV box. I need some recommendations from you sifus

I am planning to use it to passthrough to my AV Receiver. Looking to be able to support Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos , DTS X.
I have been surveying and found that Himedia Q10 Pro & Zidoo Z9S seems to fit my requirements. Would these 2 be a good option? I can find from zidoo website that it support most of the format I need but not in Himedia's page no mention of Dolby Vision but it says it support Dolby Audio not not specifically mention which exact ones.
I assume that if I use the media player to pass through to my AVR for processing I don't need to care about the format support of of the TV box? Is my assumption correct? Please recommend other options if you have in mind 🙏

Thanks both then looks like the best option for me would be Zidoo Z9X. I don't what to go to Nvidia shield route which is quite expensive. I also try researching Himedia but I can't find a concrete answer that it can support Dolby Vision / Atmos passthrough

I start surveying on Nvidia Shield non pro, the design caught my attention, and I read many great things about Dolby Atmos and Vision support from Nvidia shield, price difference isn't much compared to Zidoo and Himedia, maybe it's a wiser choice to get the Nvidia Shield? Any downside for this option?
