[QUOTE="spiney, post: 147702, member: 192438"] Again, yes! Note that MPEG2 has a provision for Dolby 5.1 - regardless of whether on DTT or satellite - so it could be transmitted! The point is, 6 (or 7!) discrete sound channels - even when compression is used - are very "bandwidth hungry". See: [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolby_Laboratories"]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolby_Laboratories[/URL] . (As so often, Wicky has a very good brief article, with links etc). It's often said Dolby A nr was first used in films preparing "A Clockwork Orange" (actual location sound then being good enough for film soundtrack - later "lipsyncing" not required - so obviously cost effective and attractive!). Wicky says film soundtrack Dolby introduced 1975, though I thought The music Lovers had it (I might be wrong!). [/QUOTE]
