Audio in downloaded movie in itunes not resulted as stated

I just bought "Lord of Rings, special extended edition" on the itunes store.
It stated on itunes that audio would be sorround 5.1 but when I play the files on my macbook pro with snow leopard it only plays in stereo (no sorround).
The file info also states audio is dolby 5.1 but when playing only the stereo option is highlited on itunes player.
Was I ripped?
Thanks

Hi
• Free Space on internal boot hard disk. How much ?
Else read my list
*Not knowing the origin to Your problem - General approach when in trouble is as follows.*
• Free space on internal (start-up) hard disk if it is less than 10Gb should rather have 25Gb
• Delete iMovie pref file - or rather start a new user/account - log into this and re-try
iMovie pref file resides.
Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD)/Users/"Your account"/Library/Preferences
and is named. *com.apple.iMovie.plist *
While iMovie is NOT RUNNING - move this file out to desk-top.
Now restart iMovie.
• Hard disk is untidy. Repair Permissions, Repair Hard disk (Apple Disc Util tool)
• Garageband-fix. Start it, Play a note and Close it. Re-try (Corrects an audio problem that hinders iMovie)
• Screen must be set to Million-colors
• Third party plug-ins that doesn't work OK (not relevant for iMovie’08 or 09)
iMovie updated ?
QuickTime updated ?
Mac OS version ?
• Program miss-match. iMovie 5.0.2, up to Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.1 - is OK
• Program miss-match. iMovie 6.0.3 or 6.0.4, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.1 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
• Program miss-match. iMovie’08 v. 7.0.1, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.1 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
From LKN 1935. (in this case = iMovie HD (5), I tried it all, but nothing worked.
Your answer (above) has been helpfull insofar as all the different trials led to the conclusion that
there was something wrong with my iMovie software. I therefore threw everything away and reinstalled
iMovie from the HD. After that the exportation of DV videos (there has not been any problem with HDV videos)
to my Sony camcorders worked properly as it did before.

I run "Cache Out X", clear out all caches and restarts the Mac.

HOW DO I FIND MY DOWNLOADED MOVIE. ITS NOT ON MY COMPUTER OR ITUNES LIBRARY.
<Edited by Host>

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Have you looked in your video app.

TS3623 Apple TV will not play rented movies. Says it is being played on another device, which it is not. Downloaded movie via iTunes on my iMac.

I've tried restoring the TV, updating my iTunes - nothing is working. It is definitely not playing on my computer.

Sign in to your iTunes account settings on the computer (click on the AppleID top right if you're actually signed in).
In your purchase list find the purchase and use the 'Report a problem' link to tell the store.
Assume you've not moved the rental to another device where it resides but is not being played.

HT1491 Downloaded movie from Itunes onto Ipad, when tried to watch it would not start

Downloaded movie from Itunes onto Ipad, when tried to watch it would not open and start.

From iTunes on the iPad or from iTunes on your computer? BTW, you are trying to watch the movie in the videos app, correct?
if you synced the movie to the iPad, delete it and sync it again. Tap the Edit Button in the Movies tab of the Videos app and then tap the X on the movie icon to delete it. Then sync it again.
if you downloaded it directly to the iPad, close the videos app completely, reboot the iPad and then try again.
Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button twice.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Downloaded movies in iTunes help...

Why do my downloaded movies in iTunes stop playing video, but continue to play audio and then go back to normal for a good 25 minutes, then repeat this process. It also will randomly exit the movie and return to my list of movies. It has done this for multiple movies and it is driving me crazy that I can't watch a movie all the way through!! Anyone found a fix for this?

Is this on your iPad or your computer's iTunes (this is the Using iPad forum) ? If you've updated your account to have a new primary email address on it then your computer's iTunes should recognise that you've updated it and you should be able to play them via the updated id (and using the account's current password) - if not then have you tried logging out of your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > Sign Out menu option and then signed back in and seeing if you can then play them ?
If you've bought them via different accounts then you will need to authorise each account to be able to play their downloads. If you can't remember an account's password then see if you can get them reset http://iforgot.apple.com

8008 Error when trying to download movies from iTunes

I've searched Google and the discussion boards but no one seems to have a fix for the 8008 error when trying to download movies in iTunes. I have the latest version of iTunes, my Mac Mini is up to date with all of it's patches, I've tried deleting the movie in the download folder and redownload the movie but I still get nothing. Does anyone have any suggestions for a fix?
Thanks,

I've downloaded movies from iTunes, where do I find them on my iPad?

My bad, was looking at my iPhone and not my iPad, you and Kappy are of course correct.

Why should the Apple TV download movies its its not authorized to play ?

Why should the Apple TV download movies its its not authorized to play ? If the Apple TV is not authorized, how come the itunes store still goes ahead to download anyway ?

You need to be a bit more specific here.
Surely you're not suggesting iTunes or AppleTv are downloading things you've not purchased and therefore not entitled to play.
If it's something you've bought then there may be an authorisation issue with iTunes, AppleTv which could be due to a glitch (reboot AppleTV) or local/distant network issues.

Audio stuff is placed in the music app, video is in the videos app.

Is it possible to download movies from iTunes???

I was wondering if it was possible to download movies from iTunes to put on to your iPod, and burn to a disc. I have looked on iTunes and i can't find anything anywhere, however on the apple website there are images from films on iPods....so how do you do it????

I believe the plan that was announced when the Movies were introduced was to roll them out to other stores sometime in 2007 which obviously didn't happen. The reason that stores for different countries have different content is due to restrictions placed on Apple by the record companies, film companies, TV companies and other copyright holders. These are quite often completely different from country to country and therefore all require their own individual contract negotiations. The varying content is not imposed by Apple, who would have a much easier job if they only had to maintain one multi-national store and deal with one set of licensees.

Can you download movies into iTunes then watch them via airplay without an internet connection? We want to be able to watch them in our RV that does have an internet connection always.

If you want to watch on your iPad screen, you don't even need airplay.
If you want to watch on a television screen, you need an AppleTV.
In both cases...
If the movies are purchased, there is no need for an Internet connection to the outside world. If they're rented, you need an Internet connection for the first minute or so that Apple knows that you're watching the movie. I do not know if a rented movie can be stopped and restarted without an Internet connection.

Download movies from Itune

who can tell me what is wrong with itune, everytime I download movies from Itune, the movie is very dark, the last one can barely see. What can be done , thanks

Good point - current requirements for iTunes 9.x are:
Macintosh Hardware
Mac computer with an Intel, PowerPC G5 or G4 processor
Intel, PowerPC G5 or 1.0GHz PowerPC G4 or faster processor is required to play Standard Definition video from the iTunes Store
2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo or faster processor is required to play HD video, an iTunes LP, or iTunes Extras from the iTunes Store
512MB of RAM; 1GB is required to play HD video, an iTunes LP, or iTunes Extras
Screen resolution of 1024x768 or greater; 1280x800 or greater is required to play an iTunes LP or iTunes Extras
Playing videos also requires at least 16MB of video RAM
Broadband Internet connection to use the iTunes Store
Apple combo drive or SuperDrive to create audio, MP3, or back-up CDs; some non-Apple CD-RW recorders may also work.
Apple SuperDrive to back up your library to DVDs; some non-Apple DVD-RW drives may also work.

Hi I'm trying to download movies on iTunes it's sitting in the download tab saying " waiting" it's been like that for a few days how do I fix it. Thanks!!

Hi please help me I'm trying to download movies from iTunes. I've got 3 movies in a frozen "waiting " process?? How do I fix this??!
First time ipad user

Downloads happen one at a time. A Downlaod will not start until a previous one has completed.
So first make sure you don't have an App or a podcast downloading somewhere or pasued as it would be holding up the rest of the download queue.
If that is not the case, you can try restarting your iPad to see if that prompts the downloads to start..
Hold down the Home and Pwoer buttons until you see the Apple Logo. Ignore any sliders that may appear.

HT4241 How do I get an Epson EX5210 to display using the HDMI mini display port adapter so I can see 1080p downloaded movie from iTunes? It won't recognize the display via hdmi cable and adapter!

Please help! I've tried everything to get this dang thing to display a downloaded movie from itunes on my epson EX5210 lcd projector via a HDMI cable plugged into a minidisplay port adapter. I am no expert and have no idea what to do!

It's all in the manual... starting on page 26...
USB seems to work as well. Tried that?
By the way, this dang thing has "only" 768 physical pixels vertically, so "1080p" won't be visible anyway, and scaling will take place. Hope you won't be diappointed. All specs including resolutions here.
