In Reply to: 6.1 Dolby Digital EX doesn't exist. posted by Joe Murphy Jr on July 25, 2002 at 15:12:43:
Thanks for the link and explanations.I`d read in a home Entertainment mag that the DTS 6.1 spec added the rear centre speaker at the expense of resolution to the left and right rears, so I wasn`t really bothered if the DTS sound-track was 5.1 or 6.1 to be honest. What does bother me however is that some DVD`s with the DTS spec aren`t `full` DTS but some lower resolution which although apparently still better than DD isn`t as good as it should be.
Taken as an example, the Malaysian DVD9 LOTR has the three hour movie with both DTS and DD sound-tracks (along with whatever extras).
In general, should I be suspicious of any single DVD which offers both sound-tracks - can one disc comfortably hold all this information or are compromises made?
Best Regards,
Chris Redmond.
