A Anonymous Guest Nov 16, 2007 #3 I was told to use 'direct' to make the most of the dolby HD audio because it was decoded within the PS3 and then output via HDMI to the Onkyo.

A Anonymous Guest Nov 17, 2007 #5 I initially was advised to use direct but multi-channel sounds so much better. As I understand it the PS3 decodes the sound and sends it as multi-channel PCM via the HDMI to the receiver, so using the multi-channel listening mode makes sense.
