Hi everyone

I've just put the "EX" trailers that came with our CP650 (that says "This feature is presented in Dolby Digital Surround EX, I'm not sure since mine are in Italian!) and I noted that CP doesn't switch in Auto Digital with trailer but only when film starts. I think that Auto EX flag was realized after the creation of that trailer. Is the same with all EX and Aurora trailers?

Bye
Antonio

The "Aurora" (and "Rain") Dolby Digital trailers were introduced in 1999 at the time of the Dolby EX introduction with "Star Wars: Episode I". I don't think the Auto EX flag was introduced until some months later. The "Aurora" and "Rain" trailers were mixed with EX in mind though.
