For your reference

Dolby Digital is a digital sound compression technique developed by the Dolby Laborato-
ries Licensing Corporation.  Supporting 5.1-channel surround sound, as well as stereo
(2-channel) sound, this technique enables a large quantity of sound data to be efficiently
recorded on a disc.

Linear PCM is a signal recording format used in audio CDs.  While audio CDs are re-
corded in 44.1kHz/16bit, DVDs are recorded in 48kHz/16bit up to 96kHz/24bit.

If you have a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder, you will obtain the full channel Dolby
Digital soundtracks, as well as from titles with the Dolby Surround mark.
