26 Oct, 2010, 9:52 am IST | by Siddharth Basrur

Mr. Vlaicu tells us more about Dolby Digital Plus.

I had the opportunity to interview Mr. Roland Vlaicu, Dolby’s Director for Technical Marketing. The gentleman shed some precious light on the subject of Dolby Digital Plus, which is going to play a big role in the way we listen to audio on our TVs.

You, our loyal Tech2.com fans had some questions, and we made sure that they were answered. Here are some of those queries.

Hello sir, Airtel DTH is advertising the Dolby branding on its set top boxes. However there aren’t much HD channels that are available in India? Can you tell us by when can we expect some HD content for Indian consumers? - Parash Mehta
How is Dolby's service different from the normal DTH service I use? What is so special about it? - Ms. Shahane
What do we need to get dolby surround sound on my DTH service? - Rahul Lakhpati
Can you tell us what do you have to offer Indian consumers? - Shailesh G

So if you want to know more about Dolby Digital Plus and how it is going to revolutionize the way we appreciate TV, watch the video interview!
