Hi guys! Just wondering if anybody has purchased any local movies in DVD with Dolby surround encoding?
I am still in the process of buying a surround processor for my recording studio so I haven't verified myself. I personally mixed Dolby surround local movies for film. I did the Dolby mixing in Thailand. No Dolby certified studio with the latest Dolby equipment, Pro Tools Icon system and optical surround transfer -processing services which I require exists in the Philippines.
The Dolby movies I have done are:
Exodus: Tales from the Enchanted Kingdom
ZsaZsa Zaturnnah Ze Moveeh
Ouija
Resiklo
Sundo
If they are not encoded in surround, then there's a problem with encoding the DVD Masters which I will research further so in my Dolby projects this year I can already find a solution to this. I suspect that the production houses that prepare the DVD masters don't pass through the right steps in encoding, probably an added reason why we have lower quality DVD releases.
