[1] It uses five full-bandwidth channels and one low-frequency effects channel (the "point one"). [2]
The first and simplest method is using a surround sound recording technique—capturing two distinct stereo images, one for the front and one for the back or by using a dedicated setup, e.g., an augmented Decca tree [20] —or mixing-in surround sound for playback on an audio system using speakers encircling the listener to play audio from ...

Dolby TrueHD is a lossless, multi-channel audio codec developed by Dolby Laboratories for home video, used principally in Blu-ray and compatible hardware. Dolby TrueHD, along with Dolby Digital Plus (E-AC-3) and Dolby AC-4, is one of the intended successors to the Dolby Digital (AC-3) lossy surround format.
Dolby AC-4 can have up to 5.1 core audio channels which all Dolby AC-4 decoders are required to decode. [1] Additional audio channels may be encoded as side signals which Dolby AC-4 decoders can optionally support which would allow for the delivery of 7.1.4 channel audio. [1] Side signals may also contain audio objects. [1]
