The film company, the people who make the film, put the surround sound on a PREVIEW DVD for the PRODUCERS to watch and listen to. With me so far?

Yes and there hasn't been a track done for the DVD yet as they haven't decided which ones to use. So if there ISN'T a track for the DVD how do they get the cinema track onto a pirate?

it's not the retail DVD.
The film company does the sound transfer, not the pirates.

Yes and they can just rip the Dolby Digital track straight from the Cinema just like that...

Why do you think they spend months trying to get a mix equal to that of the cinema version? They haven't even decided what audio track/s will run on the DVD yet.

So if the cinema version of the film has 5.1 support, it will be on this preview DVD.

It's not difficult to understand.

But the DVD that the pirates rip isn't the retail DVD, it's a preview copy for Producers that has fallen into untrustworthy hands.

Of course if someone grabs a copy of the DVD before release then yes they can have a fully working DVD with Dolby Digital however in most cases this does not happen and in the case of the Matrix Revolutions they haven't even decided whether the DVD will have a DTS track as well as Dolby Digital so there isn't one with a full Dolby Digital 5.1 track out yet.

Unless the movie is copied from the source DVD then it won't have a Dolby Digital track. Composers spend months on transfering the cinema Dolby onto the DVD release and unless the person has the software to do their own (which is HIGHLY unlikely) then it will run in 5 channel pro logic which is basically 3 channels of basic stereo and 2 surround flat stereo channels which omit exactly the same sound. The only pirated DVD I have heard in Dolby Digital was a copy of Police Story which was ripped straight from the DVD including the Dolby Digital source code. That was after the release of the DVD.

Actually it DD5.1 or DTS on most DVDs. As Bane as said time and time again that DVD copies of the actual movie are out before release, these are perfect copies that are on a proper DVD and have proper 5.1/DTS as they are used to show top exec people what the movie is etc. In January the Two Towers was released as a perfect copy with 5.1 on DVD less than 2 weeks after the cinema release as it was a screener copy for the Oscars.

Alot of the pirate DVD's do have crap sound and video, because some idiot has put a cam version on a DVD to sell it to some idiot who thinks he.she is getting DVD quality. The real good stuff is not released at all or if it is its only people with top notch site access or people in the know that get them, or if someone is selling them at a car boot. Dont forget that a movie company isnt going to send out poor quality video and sound on a movie to exec people and all the top notch company owners are they.
