I hope I did not screw something up while setting up my DENON 1802. DD works great I have been using Gladiator and Moulin Rouge as test discs. DTS does not produce anything...not even a hiss. I have my Panny Rp31 hooked in via Toslink (optical) and have selected the DTS track (Panny's OSD confirms DTS) but no sound...not even a pop or hiss (DTS signal light is not on either). My question....since this is my first digital receiver how do I check to see if it's the DVD player or the Receiver that's FUBAR????

Anyone else experience this?

It's the DVD player. Check the DVD player's internal menu and make sure it's set to provide DTS-OUT. Sometimes the setting is defaulted to NO. That's usually the correct workaround 99% of the time.

Is your Digital Input set correctly? If your watching on DVD, you must select the correct Optical or Coax that your using...

Exp. If your using Optical 1, your input(DVD) must be switched to Optical 1. Did you go through these settings??

This is done through the OSD of the 1802...

Finally found the Menu that allows DTS bitstream, sure enough it was set to off...all is well now. I thought that By selecting DTS on the DVD it would be sufficient. Thanks for yer help.

Getting the DTS track to work for the first time IS A PAIN with all the different settings you much turn on. It almost takes a planet alignment to get that the first time, without some setting SOMEWHERE being incorrect.

Sonny, you said you went to the DVD player audio options and selected DTS.....did it look something like this...

DTS....bitestream.....on

DD.....bitestream.....on

If not, you didn't go to the right place.

Hey Sonny

It happens to alot of us with the DTS. I have a Yamaha RX-V995 and at first the DTS did not work. Until I turned on the bitstream on the Pioneer DVD player. Has worked great ever since. I would leave you receiver on Auto format allowing it to auto detect Dolby Digital or DTS. Although I would be happy if Dolby Digital movies disapeared, rofl. To each his own and so on. Have fun with you ht system.
