Utard Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Anyone come across a new list of 7.1 movies? I found this one but it is about 1 year old. http://forum.blu-ray.com/blu-ray-movies-north-america/159814-list-bds-7-1-audio.html I know on video games my receiver when setup on auto surround will show R-C-L-LS-RS-LR-RR-LFE but it has never shown all 4 surrounds working when watching a movie. Are there any true 7.1 movies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there any true 7.1 movies?There aren't a ton but they aren't super rare. Lion king, the new transformers, the new pirates of the carribean. Just to name a few. It generally says on the back of the bluray case if you are looking specifically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derrickdj1 Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Hello, I have a Pioneer elite SC 35 and wanted to see 7 speakers working when I was trying everything out. I rented some dvd's from the video store that were suppose to be 7.1 movies. Popped them in and only 5 speakers lit up. I brought a blue-ray of the same movie I rented and 7 speaker lit up. Blue-rays carry the 7.1 channels but most dvd's do not; they will only have the disc in a 5.1 format. Your system can matrix the dvd to 7 channels but it is not the same experience. I use to say why spend the extra money on blue-rays when my player upconverts anyway. Now I just place my avr in auto surround and a enjoy watching it detect DTS-master, Dolby true hd and the other formats and automatically select the best playback mode.I run a 9.1 system and was watched Green Lantern the other day, and it was cool in one of the sences with a helicopter going from low to high and seeing my front height speakers handle the special effect.

derrickdj1 Posted December 24, 2011 Share Posted December 24, 2011 Thor, Captain America, Shoot em up, 3:10 to youma, Pirates of the Caribbean(latest one) and Tranformers Darkside of the Moon are 7.1 blue-rays that I own. I have others, but these just came to mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
