  • The AudioFormat constant is named ENCODING_DTS_UHD_P2, and the internal platform mime type constant too is named MEDIA_MIMETYPE_AUDIO_DTS_UHD_P2. It's a correct and clear way to refer to this format.
  • DTS:X is a marketing name that can be misleading because DTS:X is a proprietary extension to other DTS formats, however DTS:X supports both DTS-HD based and DTS-UHD based formats. Equating DTS-UHD with DTS:X is bound to cause confusion when DTS-HD based DTS:X is encountered.

Issue: #2487
