' No studio currently plans to include DTS tracks on their first releases. However, none have ruled it out, and the inclusion of extras such as audio commentaries, featurettes and other value-added materials is still being decided.
' No studio has committed to "day & date" with VHS and/or DVD releases, instead preferring to focus exclusively on "spectacle" oriented catalog titles that would most show off the capabilities of HD. However, D-VHS "day & date" releases are a distinct possibility in the future pending market acceptance of the new platform.
' What were the titles that were demoed? The lucky five were The Sound Of Music and X-Men from Fox, U-571 from Universal, and Basic Instinct and Total Recall from Artisan. While no titles were confirmed for release, the studio reps present at the demo indicated that including the demo titles, some possible D-VHS candidates are Independence Day and Die Hard from Fox, GalaxyQuest from DreamWorks, and Terminator 2 from Artisan. (The Artisan rep also included the first Terminator in there, but since that is currently an MGM property, your guess is as good as mine on that one!)
' One other notable fact revealed at the demo is that due to issues with encoders, all the initial D-VHS releases from the studios will be encoded in 1080i, not 1080p. However, all the studios indicated they will support 1080p native encoding when available.
