Xbox Video - How to know quality sound (stereo - DD - DTS) before paying for a movie.

I am kind of disappointed as I rented a movie in HD today and what a surprise the sound was on stereo!!!! When it all started on xbox 360 I remember that the movie bios informed about the sound.

I mean I would not rent a movie on HD just for quality of image, I also expect, al lleast, good 5.1 sound. I see that there are some movies in 5.1 and others that are not, the main problem is that you cannot tell until you have rented, or worse, bought the
movie.

Is there a way to know it before paying? Because in case of stereo sound I would rather rent the movie on SD.

Thanks

"Digital" Audio via toslink.

Yeah DTS has a much better sound range. Prefer it on my movies and games over DD 5.1.

 

Surround Sound Not Working

I have other devices connected to my Marrantz, namely chromacast and 3d blue ray player. I jus tried playing a video on youtube through chromecast. It was an iron man 3 trailer, in hd and Dolby sound. When I play this video through chromecast, my AVR shows
me the sound output options of "DOLBY PLII MOVIE" and "DTS NEO:6 cinema" in addition to "multi Chn stereo". Playing the video on either Dolby or DTS gives me proper surround sound. Then I tried playing the same video on xb1 youtube. This time the sound options
were "multi Chn in" and "multi Chn stereo". Playing the video in multi Chn outputs sound from only front, center and sub. Surround speakers don't output any sound. I tried selecting bitstream, and select DTS/ Dolby there, but same result. I don't know what
my xb1 is doing this?
