    Sony BDP S350 and STR-DG820 HD sound issues

    Wahooooo! Just got home from work and tried Dirk Gently's idea of checking the HDMI option. It was set to AMP+TV. And changed it to just AMP and when I spun up The Dark Knight, Dolby TrueHD started across the AMP display. Just started listening and it definately sounds HD. Thanks all.

    Sony BDP S350 and STR-DG820 HD sound issues

I'm fairly certain the player is outputting the correct signal as bitstream but even if it was decoding onboard, surely the AMp would output TrueHD?

    Sony BDP S350 and STR-DG820 HD sound issues

    I just got these Sony blu-ray player and AV receiver and can't sem to get the AV receiver to output HD surround sound.
