5.1 dolby export in PPro CC?

I'm trying to export a 5.1 sequence in a codec that support Dolby Digital 5.1 from Premiere Pro CC. The only option I can find is using AAC with a 5.1 channel, however the output is still telling me it's a Stereo export.

How can I export 5.1 Dolby from Premiere pro?

If not, how can I simply export a 5.1 sequence? Will the .aac codec give me true 5.1 surround sound?

Thanks,

Mike

Adobe dropped the support for Dolby exports. you will need to purchase the Surcode Dolby plug-in to get Dolby exporting back.

Just wanted to chime and say how much this is annoying. We regularly need to export 5.1 and 7.1 files and having to add a secondary plug-in now is kind of whack on top of legacy files.
