jeezz i long for the day when sound quality conformity is a standard as display.
Netflix wouldnt play in 5.1 on IE11 or an netflix app but thank $$$$ i got it to work on an app on my bluray player. Proper 5.1 dd+ as well none of this 5 channel stereo bs
Coz yeah BBC iplayer in HD does HD picture but does it do bucking 5.1 DD ? ...... does it hell... tested some of their flagship music programs (last night of proms etc) and could only get stereo (this is iplayer app through the bluray player as well) It was odd because i changed it to bitsream bts but it still only showed PCM on the display. (it would show DTS up until i put on iplayer)
Also im not even sure Interstellar was in 5.1 when i watched it yesterday...should all the voices and sound effects (doors opening etc) always come from the damn centre speaker????
But its strange because in scenes where there is music or big sound effects i can clearly hear them from the 2 rear speakers....but how do i know its proper 5.1 ? and not just flannelling me with 5.1 stereo?
btw PCM is only ever 2 channel yeah?
