    Vudu Misrepresents HDX as Always Including Dolby Digital 7.1 (or 5.1)

    Shame on Vudu for misrepresenting the quality of its service by claiming "HDX features true 1080p HD and Dolby Digital Plus 7.1 surround sound". This caused me and Vudu technical support to waste a lot of time trying to figure out why I could not stream The Walking Dead or Game of Thrones in Dolby Digital 5.1 sound. Eventually tech support realized that Vudu was reselling versions that supported "Dolby Digital Stereo," but not Dolby Digital 5.1 (or higher). Truth in advertising requires Vudu to reveal that, while HDX does always imply 1080p video resolution, it does NOT always imply sound quality of Dolby Digital 7.1 or even 5.1.

    All 10 episodes of Game Of Thrones (Season 1) are DD 5.1 on VUDU. I'm not watching Season 2, which I have not seen, until it has DD 5.1.

        Correct. My Bad. I was looking at the "More Info" sound type on the 10 featuretts by mistake. I have 10 featurettes listed before the 10 actual episodes for GoT S2. So was OP duxlerwm looking at the same "More Info" on featurettes by mistake like me?
