Dolby Digital Plus is such a quite new standard which is not available in England ever before. Currently, most of the contents which are transmitted online, including those of Lovefilm, are in stereo format. Some have encoded surround sound, which the technology such as Dolby Pro Logic can extract.

Dolby Digital Plus allows transmitting surround sound multi-channel more effectively; therefore, a better Dolby Digital surround quality sound (or more) is available for your films which can cater your interest.

This standard can be possibly not compatible with the old system; therefore, your hardware receiving need to decode it. This can be solved easily by using some softwares on PC or PlayStation 3 joystick. After that, this device can export sound such as 5.1 PCM to your AV receiver.

Dolby also booted the mobile phone’s standard in order to supply provide surround sound for films running through Micro HDMI port of your phone. Theoretically, the handheld devices would have the hardwares to decode Dolby Digital Plus soundtrack, and Dolby was on the way to deal with the chip manufacturer to make it no longer a daydreaming wish. Mark Price, PR manager of Dolby Laboratories, insisted a dozen of services using this standard were available in England, including Acetrax streaming services.

Besides, there is such good news for the fans of Blu-ray movies. According to, there is a tendency of using real 7.1 surround sound in movies and other purposes. Until now, there is a few of soundtracks are made in 7.1 surround sound and most of the mixtures on Blu-ray disks are re-equipped from the 5.1 one. Nevertheless, approximately 50 films are made in 7.1 sound and we will definitely witness much more Blu-ray disks with the sound track in the future – of course they will use codec Dolby TrueHD.
