Author Topic: Funky Dolby Digital Logo On The New "xXx" Trailer Mark J. Marshall Film God Posts: 3188 From: New Castle, DE, USA Registered: Aug 2002 posted 04-12-2005 09:25 AM                    Anyone else notice it? Looks like a normal Dolby DIGITAL logo, but the box that should contain the word "DOLBY" is a solid white box. Ok, maybe I pay attention to detail TOOOOO much. You can say it. I won't be offended.  |  IP: Logged Ken Lackner Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1907 From: Atlanta, GA, USA Registered: Sep 2001 posted 04-12-2005 02:17 PM                     I noticed the same thing! It was only on screen for a second or two, so I figured maybe I was seeing incorrectly. Anyone know what is up with that?  |  IP: Logged Mark J.

I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one!  |  IP: Logged Aaron Garman Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1470 From: Toledo, OH USA Registered: Mar 2003 posted 04-13-2005 01:54 AM                     Maybe Sony is ashamed to show the competition. Albeit DTS looked normal, but hey, DTS isn't really competition. (Can open...worms everywhere) AJG  |  IP: Logged Dominic Espinosa Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1172 From: Boulder Creek, CA.

I did notice the odd Dolby logo on XXX: State/Union, I did also notice on some of the other trailers I'm playing that the Dolby Digital logo also has SR right next to it.  |  IP: Logged Tim Reed Better Projection Pays Posts: 5246 From: Northampton, PA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 04-13-2005 03:28 PM                       Oh, wonderful. More trademark confusion.  |  IP: Logged Jesse Skeen Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1517 From: Sacramento, CA Registered: Aug 2000 posted 04-14-2005 01:49 AM                     Haven't seen this trailer, but have seen the Dolby logo turn out like that on others. It appears to be from the logo being overexposed/too bright so the letters don't show up (sorry for my complete lack of technical terminology, I'm about to go to sleep!)  |  IP: Logged
