DiscoveryHD not in DolbyDigital 5.1?

[DRAKO]

Im a previous D* customer and I used to have DiscoveryHD as part of the HD package that's offered with them.

As you guys know DiscoveryHD does repeat some of its documentaries. So while watching this channel with my D* service several of these documentaries were in shown with 5.1DD sound (one that comes to mind is "The Blue Angles") My receiver always picked it up as DD5.1 with D* but I just saw that same show in DiscoveryHD with VOOM and my receiver only picked up DolbyDigital 2.0

At first I thought it might be something else, but I have several other Voom channels that Do send the 5.1 signal to my receiver fine (connected via optical cable BTW)

Iit never occured to me, but now that I been watching this issue for the last couple of days DiscoveryHD never gives me 5.1 audio, so whats up???

several other documentaries that were 5.1DD in D* are only 2.0DD in V*

does voom not transmit 5.1 for that channel for some reason or why do I only get DD 2.0?

Some Discovery HD programs are only DD 2.0 while others are DD 5.1

yeah I must have had bad luck never catching one with the 5.1 sound, but yesterday when watching the blue angels one, it was 2.0 and I swear I remember on D* it was 5.1

werid, at least voom seems to be passing the 5.1 through

since I saw that otherone (American Chopper) in full 5.1
