HI,
OK, I purchased a Samsung Blu ray player over the weekend to augment my aging and obsolete HD DVD player.
I set up the blu ray vai HDMI (2) on the Onkyo on the AUX setting, so now the video runs via the HDMI out to my TV. That is, the HD DVD is connected to the Onkyo via HDMI (1) and uses the DVD setting for audio, Blu is HDMI (2) using the AUX setting for audio and those are both output via the HDMI out to the TV.
I calibrated the HD DVD using Audessey. My question is, since I have the Bluray going through AUX, do I need to redo Audyssey for the AUX setting or does the Audyssey setting carry over from the DVD set up and apply to all applications?
The reason i ask, is that the sound from the Bluray did not seem to be as good as that from the HD DVD player. Now that is a subjective comment as I was not comparing one to the other directly (an A vs B comparison), but I did have to turn up the center channel to hear things properly and did not have to did this with the HD DVD.
I would expect the DTS MD etc to sound better than the HD DVD so I am thinking there is something else I need to do....
Thanks for any input.
