Hey guys,
Just hooked up the PS3 and using it as my Blu-Ray player. Popped in a disc and my Denon displayed "MultiChannel" something or other but never said Dolby digital even though that was chosen on the disc. Researched further to find out that the PS3 was set in Linear PCM instead of Bitstream. I changed to Bitstream and my receiver showed what it normally does "Dolby Digital" blah, blah, blah. My question is this. I know that PS3 had HDMI 1.3 ports. I know that my Denon is HDMI 1.1. I am using an HDMI cable. Should I let the PS3 do it's magic in Linear PCM mode and forget that my receiver isn't displaying what I'm use to seeing or is the fact that my receiver is not 1.3 compliant keeping the TrueHD audio from being realized? I can get past the stuff is says on the display as long as I'm hearing what I'm supposed to hear.
Clear as mud? Please help or suggest.
Thanks
Rick
