    Re: HDX movies having Dolby Stereo Audio ?!!?

    Is there a thread for tracking the list of titles that are encoded in stereo

    I noticed the same with Fellowship of the Rings, Batman Returns
    I think Batman Begins too (not 100%)
    The other thing I am noticing is that the aspect ratio is altered on some marquee titles like Batman Begins (cropped), Dark Knight (IMAX scenes are not in 16:9)

    Re: HDX movies having Dolby Stereo Audio ?!!?

    I have to say I agree with the other members on this one. I just started my D2D conversion and just happened to start with the first LOTR. The fact that Vudu accepted a major movie like this to come from a studio in Dolby Stereo completely blows me away. I would think that the market for a service like this is the customer that has obviously spent some time building their home theater experience and spent a considerable amount on their surround sound system. I wouldn't be very concerned if older movies were only in stereo but it's a complete deal breaker for me if they can't get all movies made within the last ten years in DD. I didn't spend countless hours running cables and spent hundreds of dollars on my surround sound system to listen to movies in stereo.

    So, I noticed that as of now, still no 5.1 is available for any of the matrix movies, even in HDX.

    Well I'm not sure if your solution will work. This is what happened with my support ticket.

    Thank you for contacting Vudu customer care.
    I researched those movies on our site and it appears as though those titles are only available in Stereo. If you go to the More Info tab on a movie page, you can see what Audio they are encoded in. These particular movies are only available in Stereo.
    Please contact us again for any further questions or concerns.
    Best regards,

    That's all well and good but if the studio's take years to re-issue the new encode then it really doesn't matter, does it?

    You know thats great, but i would think some movies would be obvious i.e Matrix, 300, Lord of the Rings. Those movies should've came with 5.1 before The Wedding Planner.

    Can i submit a ticket even for movies i havent converted yet?

On my PS3, they are showing as HDX with Dolby Stereo.

    Training Day, Mission Impossible 3, Matrix Revolutions, Matrix Reloaded, Friday, Die Hard With a Vengeance, Die Hard, 300 and Batman Begins.

    I dont think any of us is supporting D2D to get inferior products especially downgrading DTS-HD or Dolby HD audio to Stereo.

    I sent a support ticket. If this is what we have to look forward to then i think i'm done converting especially since i mainly buy action/thriller/blow'em up movies.

    Edit: Just watched some 300 and it was not cool in stereo, alot going on in the front stage. I can imagine what Matrix is going to sound like .
