At first glance, this is pretty straightforward. Most of us know what the difference is between stereo and surround sound. However, once we start looking a little deeper, things can start to get complicated.
An MED, or mix minus VO/narration, is for programs where the dialog is subtitled, but the voiceover is revoiced for international distribution. This is just another option to allow distributors maximum flexibility when conforming their programs to different languages and markets.
When a network asks for dipped stems, they just want the individual audio stems to be at the level that makes up the full mix. This means that if you simply mix the dialog, narration, sound effects, and music stems together at 0 (no level change) it should sound exactly like your full mix.
Since it takes longer to say things in different languages, most networks will also ask for undipped deliverables for their international distributors. Undipped means that requested stem will stay at the same audio volume level throughout the program, regardless of what the dialog or VO is doing. This allows the international versioning mixer to re-dip the stems to account for the differences in the length of different languages.
