On DirecTV, I get virtually nothing in DD. We do not subscribe to premium channels and I do not have HD, but on the occasional free preview weekends, I have noticed that Showtime, HBO, etc. deliver a 5.1 signal. So, I know I've got the boxes wired right and the capability exists. However, for network shows that might be filmed in HD and might have included a 5.1 sountrack, I do not get the 5.1. I'm assuming that it is because the DD signal is only transmitted with the HD signal.
