In Reply to: But How Many Players Can Successfully Access Certain Tracks? posted by Robertc88 on September 12, 2007 at 05:49:54:
Are you going to use the 5.1 outputs from your source player or from your Receiver or Preamp/processor ?
If you are planning to use the 5.1 analog outputs from your source player, you need to make sure the player can decode the audio tracks you want (e.g. TrueHD, DTS HD MA (not to be confused with DTS HD)). And be sure your receiver has 5.1 analog bypass.
If you want the Receiver to do the 5.1 analog outputs, you will need to send the digital audio over HDMI. Does your source player send bitstream and/or PCM over HDMI ? Does your receiver accept bitstream/PCM ? Does either and/or both decode TrueHD or DTS HD MA properly ?
I think too many people do not realize you cannot get 5.1 lossless audio over coax/optical.
