Default What is 2.0 surround?

I have a number of DVDs that have 2.0 surround. How does this provide
surround sound?


It is like the oringinal 2 channel analog surround sound, the surround
channels are encoded in the 2 channels and then during playback the
surround sound decoder extracts the center and two rear channels. The
DVD audio is two channel digital rather than analog, but the concept
is the same.
