Agreed...

It's definitely better than the free videos from Google Play.


EDIT: (except that one time they gave away LOTR:FOTR)

Atmos is a new audio codec that is supposed to be super immersive. The clips have really fun sound effects.

While they do not have the clip "silent," this website has the other 4 clips readily available for download, http://www.demo-world.eu/2d-demo-trailers-hd/

They also have a ton of other clips that can be used for demo purposes. Not sure if the clips are actually better than VUDU or not but at least with that website you know exactly what you are getting.

Wouldn't you need a sound system that decodes Dolby Atmos to get the full effect?

That's what I was thinking. Reminds me of the promos for blu rays that started popping up on DVD back in the olden days. Their demonstrations of incredible sound and video quality meant squat when showcased on a DVD and watched on a 27" tube tv, lol.

That's the point. Receivers now have the codec to do it.

Are these available on the app?

Yes, but it doesn't hurt to add it to your collection.

Well...

I just got done deleting some of those crappy free episodes that have been cluttering my library for ages. "Aww, what the heck. Free is free!" doesn't work for me anymore. I think I'm going to pass. Thanks anyway OP

Thanks jscoggins!

Bought a Denon 4100 couple months ago and installed one pair of in ceiling speakers. ...all that being said, I had not heard all of the Atmos demo trailers (except on Atmos Blu rays). So being able to all of them is much appreciated.

To be honest, I am looking forward to hearing DTS:X (their version). I did get a copy of the DTS demo disc which includes a scene from Divergent...now since the Denon does NOT decode DTS:X, but using their upconversion of the audio codec with "Dolby Surround"...it's a faux version of the DTS X experience...I was still blow away by how good it sounded. Just judging on this one clip, it gets me excited about DTS object based soundtracks (decoding).

Haha...

The scene of her in the glass case/cube with water pouring in was the DTS:X demo scene (they had another scene in DTS straight up (no chaser).

Was one of the most immersive HT audio experiences I've had. ....really stood out as being right in the middle of the audio bubble.

This is nice, but I don't have Dolby Atmos so, therefore, this audio demo won't do anything for me on my 7.1 system. At least the price is right.

Even though you wont get the full affect of atmos without the proper speakers and receivers this mix is very aggressive and gives you a more 3d surround sound than regualr 7.1/5.1 will with just a plain 7.1/5.1 mix. Any movie i have watched that has atmos does plays in true-hd/dts-hd as it is backward compatible (i believe from what I have read).

It even sounds very aggressive on my desktop pc that only has 2 speakers.

Vudu also doesn't stream atmos. Mine was streaming dolby digital plus but the demos did sound very aggressive with my non atmos system.
