Well if your kit isn't capable of decoding Atmos and not many amps/Receivers are then I cant understand how it recognises it on your remote unless its a harmony remote.It has me confused somewhat ! I think transformers 4 is also a dolby atmos ,do you have that ?

What's a Harmony remote? This is just my regular Sony remote.

I have Age Of Extinction. I must check that one out later when I get a chance

A harmony is a remote that can replace all of your existing remote controls ,they cost upwards of £100 and don't suit everybody,didnt suit me .....I quite like having multiple remotes lying about the place and it gives my good lady something to moan about.

On another note i'm not sure this dolby atmos will take off , ceiling speakers and upgrading of kit is all well and good for a dedicated cinema room but a bit beyond the normal family living room which is where most people watch their movies...............it looks a bit niche and for those people with too much money and too little to spend it on.

If you had Dolby Atmos in your home, you would know since you'd have recently bought an AV receiver that supports it.

Dolby Atmos will and has taken off.

My enquiry is about the encoding of the discs where the information that is being displayed for the audio on the discs (in this case Dolby Atmos) is different, depending on what the title is.

I have this one. I like the Clint Eastwood's movie.

Guys, sorry I know this is the UK release.. I just would like to know if there is any word Canada will be getting this as well? It seems to be WWA: HMV for UK, Target for US and Kimchi+Nova for Korea..

That's what I like @George Pearce , - say it like it is!

On a thread returning note - I collected my copy from HMV Bury this morning. Happily nicely minty.
They've started hiding their new steels away; probably to discourage the scalpers.

Strange that my copy has gloss on the top and bottom side of the steelbook!

I love the spot gloss on the sniper scope on the back of the steel.

That always happens whenever the finish is Zero Finish.

You should just be able to use your finger nails to take them off - it wont damage the steelbook at all. I have done it on numerous steelbooks

If you can't get to an HMV branch then at least look at xtra-vision where the price is GBP 16.19 with STEELBOOKTEN code before paying considerably more than that on the auction site.

"Those people with too much money and too little to spend it on" - They obviously haven't been introduced to steelbooks yet . . .
