Only DTS-HD MA 5.1 on Walking Dead Season 4?

[Bletch]

Very Sorry if this been asked before but im in panic now.... i've noticed that they have dropped the 7.1 soundtrack on the fourth season. Why ? Am i hopefully wrong ?

Best regards friends!

Note, the Region A American Release has TrueHD 7.1

Until it's actually been released, I suggest you just relax.

The UK release of the third season also had DTS-MA HD 5.1 compared to the Dolby TrueHD 7.1 of the US release...

Is it really that important, no, I think not.

I'd be far more concerned if there was no Audio whatsoever.

I'm not 100% certain the series is native 7.1, I think it's an upmix. And for whatever reason, UK distributors seems to always favour 5.1 over 7.1 upmixes, if they're only sticking one track on a release. Whereas upmixes are quite common in Scandinavia...

Also, the distributor in the US is AMC Studios, whereas Fox International Channels owns international rights and sub-licences the DVDs. I know FIC do produce an alternate version with the Fox International Channels and eOne logos at the end, so it's possible that version isn't 7.1.
