Thanks!

I'll double check on that and make any updates accordingly.

I did, thanks. The list has been updated accordingly.

I'm not sure and I really don't understand it either. The only thing I could think of is that they did the DTS encoding without the ES portion/extension of it (like they downmixed the 5.1 EX track to DTS 5.1). More people are confirming it's not ES than are confirming it is. I may just pick up the titles to see.

Things are looking kinda shady for the beginning of next year. Nothing forthcoming that I've heard about, although there aren't many actual movies being released in EX/ES either.

There's rumors that the Stargate:UE will also have DTS ES 6.1 Discrete...
Well see how that plays out.

DVDFile.com reports that "S1m0ne" is in both DD-EX 5.1 and DTS ES 6.1.

A question for the admins:
Since this is a fairly important topic, is there a way to make this a sticky or equivalent? This is very useful information, more so now that 6.1 is finally catching on.

Anthony,
That is a nice surprise, but only if your receiver is flaggin the sound mix correctly. I've done some preliminary checking and haven't been able to verify anything. I'll check some more.
Jesse,
This thread has already been 'stickied'. According to policy, it can only be done so once (outside of HTF info). Thanks for the effort.

| Minority Report is now the second disc to be flagged correctly on the Dolby Digital for EX |
since i don't have a receiver that shows the flag, are you guys sure about Minority Report? the menus don't say anything about EX or ES, and the cover doesn't either. usually for a matrixed surround center, don't they have a hollow box in the "box icon"?

Street date update...
Anthony,
I wouldn't put too much credibility in what your receiver says especially since it's flagging Panic Room as EX Matrix and it's definitely not so. Receiver's can interpret some flag's incorrectly and that's been commented on since the beginning of this thread.
Any other updates?
