In Reply to: Question re: HDTV via cable company and sound formats posted by Dalancroft on July 24, 2003 at 16:08:44:
I have Cox San Diego with the Scientific Atlanta 3100HD box-via the dig coax, I get some programs in true 5.1 (mainly movies on Encore, Flix, etc), a lot of programs in 2.0 stereo and quite a few channels with no audio at all (although there is stereo available via the analog L/R outputs). All the HDTV channels output 5.1, although they often utilize only the L/R front."A little government and a little luck are necessary in life, but only a fool trusts either of them".

Follow Ups:
All programs should come in Dolby Digital with the HDTV set-top when you use the optical or coax digital output. It will say on the flipbar whenever you change channels what type of audio that particular program has. It will usually have the Dolby symbol with a D next to it for Dolby Digital stereo, or say 5.1 if it's a movie in 5.1. If you want Pro Logic, just run an analog stereo pair out in addition to the digital. With the analog stereo out, you will have your receiver do the Pro Logic.
