Actually, after carefully checking the specs again on various sites, I was unable to find any reference to Dolby or DTS, so apparently they don’t support either. I had read that for a different item and confused which item had what. Pitfall of growing old!
I think you are correct on DTS being a separate company that licenses Digital Surround System to companies. I read the following sentence on my TV soundbase specs page and misread the wording to mean Dolby Digital and DTS were both Dolby. Here is the sentence, “This system incorporates Dolby* Digital and the DTS** Digital Surround System.” When I looked up the single and double asterisk footnotes it states they are separate companies. My soundbase is several years old, so no telling whether they are still separate companies.
At any rate, I not going to worry too much about Dolby support on the Echo Buds as far as TV programming goes since very little content even uses Dolby Atmos yet. A few years from now that might be a different story though. Music is a different story. But I’m going to be using my Echo Buds mostly for TV and video content.
