No discs are recorded in 7.1, but here is a list off the top of my head of 6.1 DTS and Dolby Digital 5.1 EX:

All the Star Wars Movies
Big Trouble in Little China
Gladiator
Dario Argento's Suspiria
Lord of the Rings Trilogy
Finding Nemo
Terminator 2 Special Edition

Can't think of anything else, right now. There are more.

Just go to dolby.com or dtsonline.com to find the lists of 6.1 discs.

Or you could just do what Spiky said.

There is no dolby recorded in 6.1 and above. Do you understand the concept of 6.1, 7.1, 8.1 and so on?

Actually, it's not vaporware. 7.1 and above have never existed in anyone's announced plans for DVD formats, unless I missed something. Vaporware is something that is announced but never ships. Or at least ships very late. Like Windows XP, which was SUPPOSED to be Windows 95 and showed up about a decade later.


And yes, there is Dolby recorded in 6.1. It is not 6.1 discrete, but it does exist. If we want to get semantically obtuse (is automan here?), it is called 3/2.1.1, I believe. That's 3 fronts, 2 surrounds, 1 LFE, 1 rear surround encoded out of phase in the 2 surround channels. Just try one of the 5 Star Wars movies.

I just simply call it vaporware because there are no DVD's published in 7.1 and every receiver we install supports 7.1
