Onkyo 605 and PS3

[admin_exported]

Please help me!!!! I bought a ps3 today in the hope of hearing HD Audio but i seem unable to get a true hd signal. I have connected the ps3 to the onkyo using a HDMI 1.3 cable but can't get get the 605 to light up the DD true HD logo. What am i doing wrong??

Any ideas?????

Nothing! The PS3 will output Linear PCM - which is still 'HD Audio' - into the 605. Future firmware upgrades are expected to allow it to pass native HD audio for the receiver to decode, but as yet there is no firm timeframe for this.

For more on this, have a rummage through the various posts listed on this page.
