A discrete tactile transducer channel is much more than a special output from Parasound with filters. It would be a discrete 0-500 Hz channel specifically for what is appropriate for tactile information and would have to be created by recording studio as part of the mix. Please see my signature file for complete details. For instance, D-Box (Oddessey) makes a proprietary discrete tactile/motion track for movies for use with its 3-D motion/tactile system. Hollywood will eventually start mixing these tracks for every movie, hopefully sooner than later...
DTS has commercially released a new decoder that is scalable to multiple bitrates, bit depths, sampling rates, and up to 10 channel discrete surround, so they can be flexible if they want to be. If they're smart, DTS will be in talks with the Blu-Ray group pronto!DTS is fiesty... that's good news.
