Dark Knight digital download NOT in DD 5.1, only stereo?

Wasn't sure where else to post this, but my Bluray copy of the Dark Knight included a digital copy of the movie. I downloaded it through iTunes, expecting it to be in 5.1 surround sound for my AppleTV2, but it is just stereo. Other digital downloads are in 5.1, like Black Swan and Inception.
Have others noticed this?
Does one have to BUY the movie through iTunes to get the 5.1 surround sound?
Thanks for any responses.
Mike

The file will have two audio tracks, a stereo one and an AC3 one, the tv will only play the stereo one but will pass the AC3 audio to anything capable of playing it through either HDMI or optical output. If you aren't getting 5.1, either your equipment doesn't support it or you have it connected improperly.
If the file simply has 6 channel AAC then you will need equipment that will play that, most receivers won't play 6 channel AAC, so you may only hear stereo if this is the case.

  • Dark Knight Digital Copy doesn't run on iPod 5G

    I recently purchased the Blu-Ray version of the Dark Knight (fantastic by the way), and thought that it would be great to be able to watch it on the go on my ipod. The 2-disc (well, really 3-disc including the digital copy) included a CD called Digital Copy. I put it into my Mac. I opened iTunes, clicked "Dark Knight" in the Devices list, and I entered my Redeem code.
    After around 5 minutes, the movie downloaded successfully, and I was able to play it on my computer. I noticed that the resolution was 853x480, but I still synced it to my iPod.
    I ejected my iPod, then on my iPod, went to Video->Movies->Dark Knight. After a few seconds, a loading screen comes up (a spinning object, really) and then it takes me back to my Movies menu.
    How can I get my iPod to play the movie? If resolution is indeed the issue, how can I scale the video down to playable size? What IS a suitable resolution??
    Thanks in advance,
    -SB

    The Digital Copy of Dark Knight is encoded and provided via a proprietary player. The resulting file that you downloaded from their site is NOT iTune or Quicktime compatible. It won't play in Quicktime Player, in iTunes nor will you be able to sync it to an iPod.
    Nor can you convert the resulting file to a Quicktime or iTune compatible file (.mp4). Warner Bros has evidently taken great pains to keep this digital movie file within a encrypted format.
    (I am writing this from experience. I too thought I could download and view the Dark Knight Digital Copy on my iPod. Once I read the fine print, I didn't even bother to download it.)
    sorry to burst any bubbles out there.

  • Dark Knight digital copy won't play!

    Hi guys! I know i'm a little late on this, but i got my dark knight blu-ray disk on christmas of 2008, and i never got around to using the digital copy disk on my mac to put it on my Ipod, until today...So once i popped the disk in it came up on itunes and i typed in the redeem code, and it all worked. Once the download was finished, however i clicked on it in my movies section in my itunes, and all that appears is a gray screen for the entire movie! I put it on my ipod and all that appeared was a black screen, then after a few seconds, kicked me back to my movies list.
    Anyone know how to resolve this problem?
    any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks.

    I have the same problem - no digital copies are playing (tried Hulk & all 3 X-Men) but other movies play fine including one with "the same" codec. Apple wasn't able to solve it (not "their problem"
    as other movies play fine), and Fox/Universal/Marvel just don't care as it's not happening to everyone. Best guess is it's a compatibility issue between certain systems/software. Yeah, I know, that's real helpful. I tried reloading latest iTunes/Quicktime/system updates & the movies - no effect. Tried erasing the "AppleUpstreamUserClient.kext" as suggested in another thread - no effect.
    Stuck now with a lot of motivation to pirate stuff rather than paying only to get nothing.

  • Dark Knight Digital Copy - Transfers but doesnt play

    Any thoughts or advice?

  • Anyone having problems with "The Dark Knight" digital copy?

    I downloaded the digital copy of "The Dark Knight" onto itunes by using a redeem code that came with the dvd set. The movie downloaded, but when I try to watch it there is no picture or sound even though the timer is activated. I emailed itunes support and they told me to uninstall then reinstall itunes, quicktime, and other apple software. I followed their instructions, but the movie still plays with no picture or sound. Anyone have similar problems? Or a solution?

    im having the same trouble with a digital copy of star trek i just keep getting a grey screen no audio or visual.
    ive just had a good scroll through some off the answered questions one thing you could try is deauthorizing your computer form itunes and then reauthorizing it. hopefully this should work for u.

  • 3G iPhone + Dark Knight Digital Copy

    I bought the Dark Knight two disc edition and extracted the Digital Copy into my iTunes Library. I've tried to sync it to my iPhone, but it doesn't seem to want to... I've added it to a playlist as well as checked the box for it in the Video tab. Does anybody know if Warner Bros excluded the iPhone from Digital Copy playback? Maybe I'm missing a step?
    Thanks!
    Patrick

    I have the original iPhone and was able to transfer my digital copy of the Dark Knight to my iTunes Library and then sync it to my iPhone. It did take up a lot of memory as the film is 2hours and 32 minutes long. I suggest you try playing (a bit)it in iTunes first then trying to sync it again, as suggested.

  • I can't download my Dark Knight digital copy.

    When I downloaed it for the first time it said that I have downloaded 1.67GB out of 1.67GB but the blue bar was still moving like it was still downloading, I went to my movies and couldn't play it. I then exited itunes to try again and I tried again but this time it wouldn't download at all. I even uninstalled itunes and redownloaded the setup and I'm still having the same problem. What is going on here? Will I ever get my digital copy?

    @gavsta72 your store probably wont let you know until you goto pick it up, best idea is to ring them or go instore.Yeah I'll give them a call this morning. Like I said though, because of Aus's remote location they no doubt would've been shipped last week (or earlier) anyway to arrive in time, so if they were delayed we would know by now......that's what I'm hoping anyway  We probably got the first batch sent, and maybe the 2nd or 3rd run of production had problems if you know what I mean

    i want to know why the game the dark knight rises is not supported by blackberry z10 slt100-1

    If you look at the limitations of the game in BlackBerry World (http://appworld.blackberry.com/webstore/content/20082872/) you can find out that the game is only available in some countries. Is your country one of the mentioned ? If not, that is the reason why it is not available.
    If you want to know more on why only few countries are available, you can contact the developer (Gameloft inc.) for more information.
    A like is always appreciated,
    but a nomination for BB Elite even more :-)

  • Dark Knight won't Download

    I purchased the Dark Knight with the digital copy. It started out okay, I entered in the code but then itunes said I wasn't it connected to the store. I tried a couple with no success when it said the code doesn't work anymore. It shows up in my purchase history but it never dowloaded, it wont let me report a problem and I can't find a e-mail adress to complain. Any help figuring out an answer to my problem would be gratefully appreciated.

    Does the Adobe Download Manager indicate that the download is complete?  Do you receive any errors when trying to open the DMG?  Have you checked to see if the disk image has mounted?  Are you able to see your hard drive listed on your desktop?  Finally have you tried checking the sidebar in your Finder window to see if the disk image is listed as mounted there?
