The only 'strange' issue I think about occasionally with the polls relates to the distinction between an audio and an audio/visual release, which is now tangled.
If a bluray with only audio on it is in 24 bit / 48 kHz / 5.1 then it can be in the main chart; but not if it is has a video attached. Seems to me they could be combined with the distinction really being quality:
- 'High Res' minimum 24 bit; 44.1kHz; 4.0; lossless (LPCM, TrueHD, DTS HD-MA etc)
- 'Standard Res' minimum 16 bit; 44.1kHz; 4.0; lossless (LPCM, TrueHD, DTS HD-MA etc)
- 'Low Res' minimum 44.1kHz; 4.0 (DTS; DTS-CD; Dolby AC3 etc)
I'm probably coming from this far too much from a digital-era-audio-nut perspective. The audio track - which is most of what I am interested in at best - does not matter to me if it has a video.
That given; I'm thinking this would be a nightmare to set up and probably not worth it lol
Thanks for the update!

The distinction on the hires poll is lossless (vs lossy on the Audio DVD poll - DTS or Dolby Digital) at the moment.
The music video poll is if the release is primarily video. If a BD has only a couple of music vids but has an audio only album it considered HiRes Audio and goes on the Hi Res poll.

Are the Booka Shade Blu Ray's on the poll?
I just did a search and didn't come up with anything. The new Dear Future Self album on Blu Ray (ATMOS) is off the hook good.

I just regenerated all QQ Surround Poll Reports and submitted to QQ web admin for uploading onto the server.
