Is it me, or are the BBC flagging some programmes as 5.1 Dolby Digital, but
only transmitting 2 channel stereo soundtracks? The Big Weekend concert last week, Hotel Babylon and Gavin and Stacey tonight all only have 2-channel sound. Heroes had 5.1 sound the other night. Using a DVB-S satellite card, DVB Viewer and AC-3 Filter. |

Using a DVB-S satellite card, DVB Viewer and AC-3 Filter. It's probably due to the unique way the BBC is funded. |

Well, if you'd wanted the sound of raucous noise behind you, you could've put a 'want ad' on Myspace for "Psycho Rangers ****** and alleged fan wanted to bawl and shout behind me for 90 minutes". |

Show him a computer and he'd probably just end up whinging about the BBC and coming up with crackpot ideas to make junk food even more disgusting than it is. mh. -- http://www.nukesoft.co.uk http://personal.nukesoft.co.uk From address is a blackhole.
