dd 5.1 'below' on sky movies :)
 

Just though I would say what an excelent sound track this film has if
you have sky+ with dd 5.1 . Very eary aquatic sounds from outside the
submarine !

Are there any others at the moment not to miss ?

It's largely off-topic but if you really want good sound then you
should try some DVDs with a DTS soundtrack.
DTS is to DD5.1 as DD5.1 is to DS.

DTS has been adopted for the new HD-DVD standard.

I would have said that DTS is to DD 5.1 what 320 kbps mp3 is to 192
Kbs mp3 ( for example) , not much in it in reality. I have both on my
Amp BTW . DS is TOTALY different from DD 5.1.. all the surround info
for all the channels is encoded on a stereo soundtrack. I doubt DTS
will every be sent over sky, it's probably not worth the extra
bandwith.

Indeed, but that isn't very helpful for someone who doesn't know what
the figures mean.

You are welcome to your opinion. I can easily hear the difference.

I know.

One or two channels have been testing DTS over satellite. Not in the
UK though. I will wager a small sum that DTS will be part of the spec
for Sky HD transmissions.

Yep, DTS rocks! And if you by the Benelux R2 edition of 'Below', it has a
DTS track in English (neither the UK nor US release has DTS).
