Have 3 systems ( with Denon receivers) where Apple TV will only do Dolby pro logic , no Dolby digital . Cable tv and blueray trigger Dolby digital fine, aple tv will not.

Any ideas?

Not all material is dolby digital. Also did you check settings in ATV? There is on off and auto for dolby digital.

Tried Apple TV with DD on setting and in auto setting and just seems to be outputting Dolby pro logic..... Or maybe Denon not being triggered for DD?

(Denon auto formats Cable box and blu ray go to DD automatically no issue)

Well, most streaming movies are only 2.0.

I recently found that DD "Auto" does not seem to work...If you set DD to "On" it will output DD when available. If set to "Auto," it never outputs DD.

IOW, there appears to be a bug with this setting...

Your right, appears that way. No Dolby digital on netflix on Apple TV

[Link: discussions.apple.com]

Wouldn't you know it, this is is the same client that dad all the HDMI issues with the NEC tv.

10 hours troubleshooting with that, 2 1/2 hour more with DD and Apple TV issues.
( have to wait for Apple TV update I guess)

Arrrrrrrrgggggggggg............

I swear that I contacted Netflix a year or two ago for the same problem. Though I figured it out by putting the Digital out to ON and not AUTO. But this time it doesn't work.

Though I have gone from ATV2 to ATV3. (Yes I know, I still have the ATV2 and waiting for it to be able to be jail broken. But it's on the latest software, I know stupid move.)
