developed by Dolby Laboratories, Inc. It
consists of front (Left/Right), center, surround
(Left/Right) and sub woofer channels. It is a
designated audio standard for DVD-video and
also known as 5.1ch surround. Since surround
information is recorded and reproduced in
stereo, more realistic sound with fuller
presence is delivered than with Dolby
surround.

This technology converts 2ch stereo recorded
audio into 5.1ch for playback. There is a
MOVIE mode for movies and MUSIC mode
for stereo sources such as music. Old movies
encoded in the traditional stereo format can be
enhanced with 5.1ch surround sound.

method for DVD-video.
