Hi there,

I just watched The Score - good film...

The back of the box clearly states DD 5.1 but I noticed no sound whatsoever
from the rear speakers.

When I toggled the audio button on the DVD player it has two audio tracks;

Track 1 DD 3/2.1 Feature
Track DD 2/0 Chat track

I guess if you add up Track 1 that comes to 5.1 but WTF?

For me at least 50% of the enjoyment comes from the soundtrack - I don't
enjoy watching films on TV any more for example - and many films I buy I
choose because they have a DTS soundtrack.

<snob>

So if a film is clearly marked as being 5.1 then IMHO it should be - even
DVDProfiler lists the audio as being 5.1

I bought this one last February from Tesco's for a fiver so I'm not gonna
lose any sleep over it...

Are there many more incorrectly marked discs out there that you know about?
