    Dolby Atmos when Watching UHD movie in 1080p on PC

    Am I able to watch a movie in which has Dolby Atmos support in Dolby Atmos on a pc with a 1080p monitor?

    Or can this only be done on Xbox one x and xbox one s which are hooked up to a uhd tv?

    I have the dolby access app btw and I want to watch the movie with Dolby Atmos for headphones.
