  I just set up my Casa Nova a couple of weeks ago. Try setting up a new dedicated input for your DTS material. Do the entire setup routine for this one input following the Casa Nova Setup guide. I would omit steps 16 and 18.

  Another thought, did you use the internal noise generator when setting up the levels in the DTS setup portion?

      I will tonight but the disc was X-men and it was pretty clear that a signal was being sent to the center channel (i.e., there was dialog) but no response.

        Could your processor give you the option to independently configure DTS and Dolby processing? Perhaps the DTS setup needs to be "told" that you now have a Center channel?

          Good call - I thought of that too - there is a separate configuration menu for DTS and I double checked it but couldn't find anything that would cause the center channel to be MIA. I checked the manual but didn't find anything there either. However, the set-up is fairly complex and I was hoping someone who uses this processor and is more familiar than I with it would have some input.

          Thanks for the response thus far!

            From the Quick Setup guide on Theta's site, there is a Menu option to have the Center channel ON/OFF and also a Level setting for the Center channel. Dolby Digital and DTS can have independent settings. Could the DTS level setting be set to "0"?

            What DVD player are you using? I can't remember what happens to the digital output if a DVD player with a DTS decoder is set up for Center channel OFF. That's grabbing at straws, but what the hell.

            Hope you find the problem.

              Good call on the DVD player - I thought about that last night, checked the setting and DTS was being output as "PCM" rather than bitstream. Changed the setting and everything works like a charm.

              Thanks for all the input!
