6.1 surround has right front, center, left front, subwoofer, left surround, right surround and a rear channel. The mix is usually created from a 7.1 surround signal, combining the left and right rear signals into one rear signal. There are very few movies with a true 6.1 or 7.1 mix available for home viewing.
