"So how come some videos say HiFi stereo, and some say Dolby Surround?"

Advertising, pure and simple. Terms are just being used interchangeably, just like different DVD companies use "Anamorphic", "Widescreen", "16x9" and "Enhanced for widescreen" to describe the same thing (and occasionally inaccurately.)

I love how many current DVDs refer to "menus" as a "feature" on the back of the case. It's not a feature...it's the standard. It's like saying "Buy our car, it's got TIRES!" LOL
