dolby digital channels

Hi. I have 3 DirecTV rca receivers with the digital fiber optic output on
the back of the receiver, and I have a dolby digital home theater receiver.
However, I am having a hard time finding channels that are broadcast in
dolby digital 5.1 on the dish. I get almost all the channels in dolby pro
logic II, and the digital indicator is lit on my home theater receiver. Are
there any channels, not HDTV that are broadcast in dolby digital 5.1?
Thanks for any help.
Shaggy

ALL MOVIES on directv for pay per view are 5.1

If you just want to hear 5.1, listen to the movie preview before it
comes on for free.
