    AC3 Dolby would likely be the most compatible. 2 channel is probably the best for home use. 5.1 AC3 is what a lot of DVDs use.

    AC3 is globally compatible because a)support for it is mandatory within the specification, and b) it is downmixed to stereo output throught eh RCA jacks on every player. If they don't have an AC3 decoding amp, then they will be using the stereo outputs to hear AC3 audio anyway.
