I just recently bought a Sony Blu-ray (BDP-S550) player with 7.1 analog outputs and hooked it up to my 7.1 multi channel input on my Onkyo receiver. I did the speaker set up on the Blu-ray player and all 7 main channels were working. When I play 7.1 discs, like Hellboy II and Dark City, there is no signal going to the two back channels. Do 7.1 Blu-ray movies not work with multi channel analog connections? Do they have to be run through HDMI only to get all 7 channels?
