Onkyo receivers and PS3

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.
 
I have my Onkyo 875 on Direct when playing Blu-Rays through my PS3. I thought you should only use Multichannel if using the multichannel inputs.
 
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.
