Samsung and Google are launching Eclipsa Audio, a new spatial audio format that’s coming to Samsung TV and soundbars released in 2025.
Samsung and Google are ready to push a new standard, Eclipsa Audio. This format will enable 3D audio experiences on certain YouTube videos later this year, with support available across Samsung’s 2025 lineup of TVs and soundbars. Over the years, Samsung notably hasn’t supported Dolby Vision HDR for dynamic HDR metadata, choosing instead to promote its preferred alternative, HDR10 Plus. Now, it seems ready to make a similar competitive push for open-source 3D audio support.
The two companies first announced a partnership to develop spatial audio technology in 2023, initially calling it Immersive Audio Model and Formats . At the time, Samsung spatial audio head WooHyun Nam said the format would provide “a complete open-source framework for 3D audio, from creation to delivery and playback.
