Apologies if this should have been posted in a different forum. There is a similar thread here BBC HD is it in 5.1
but watching Luther tonight, I'm again disappointed that dramas such as this aren't broadcast in 5.1 surround.
I'm assuming the discs releases are in 5.1 and also assume this is done for the disc release, but why can't the BBC do this before hand and broadcast in 5.1?
One thing I love about Sky and Netflix is that the US shows are broadcast / streamed in 5.1
When UK programmes such as Luther are shown in the US are they not shown in 5.1?
I know people will point out that 5.1 users are in the minority - but if this is the case why release discs with 5.1 tracks?
Apologies for the rant. It's such a frustration with UK TV.
