Dolby has expanded its Dolby Vision lineup and has released a handy infographic detailing how to watch its content.
VUDU and Dolby have announced the arrival of two new Warner Bros. titles to their 4K Ultra HD Dolby Vision lineup. 'In the Heart of the Sea' and 'The Intern' are now available to watch in Dolby Vision through VUDU. In addition, 'In the Heart of the Sea' also features a Dolby Atmos soundtrack.
Dolby Vision uses HDR (high dynamic range) and expanded colors to offer enhanced contrast and picture on supported displays. Meanwhile, Dolby Atmos is an immersive, object-based audio technology that allows users to add overhead audio to supported sound systems. There are now more than 30 VUDU titles available in Dolby Vision, including 14 films with Dolby Atmos soundtracks.
Additional Warner Bros. 4K Ultra HD titles with Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos on VUDU include 'Mad Max: Fury Road,' 'The Man from U.N.C.L.E.,' 'The Gallows,' 'Entourage,' 'San Andreas,' 'American Sniper,' 'Man of Steel,' 'Jupiter Ascending,' 'Pan,' 'We Are Your Friends,' 'Pacific Rim,' 'Edge of Tomorrow,' and 'Into the Storm.' Likewise, Warner Bros.

To experience VUDU titles in Dolby Vision, customers will need a supported display like the recently released VIZIO Reference Series Ultra HD TV or upcoming models from LG and TCL.
