I connect PS3 to Samsung LCD TV by HDMI to get 1080P picture.  Problem is that I can't get 5.1 to play through the Arcam using optical from PS3.  Do I need to buy a HDMI enabled amp or am I missing a setting.  I've been going through the settings on PS3 but still no sound through amp.  I watch Blu-ray in 1080P and listen to audio through 2 Ch Samsung TV speaker ><.  Help would be greatly appreciated.

Did you assign the optical input you used on the AVR, to the ps3? If not, you need to. The owner's manual will tell you how. I'm not real familiar with ps3s, but if you have the new slim ps3, I think you need to set it to Bitstream. If it's an older ps3, maybe try different settings, until you get it. The input needs to be assigned, if you haven't already, nomatter what setting you use in the ps3.
Good luck!
