When I go to the BD/DVD settings I see the following entries:
Dynamic Range - Set to Automatic
BD/DVD Audio Output (HDMI) - LPCM. Bitstream is also an option in that menu
BD/DVD Audio Output (Optical Digital) - Bitstream. LPCM is also an option.

This last bit mans that you get 2 channel PCM...that is all the bandwitch of PCM over Optical/Coax digital has. Funny thing is, DPL
is two channel. Left channel has left front, and center. Right channel has Right front, and surround ( I may be dislexic and have that backwords
) so, you could have surround via 2 channel LPCM.

So are you saying that once I hook up the new receiver then switch to Bitstream for the HDMI option (which I assume is preferred over LPCM???) that it will not actually stream it but still do some sort of conversion?

This is where I am confused
Acording to you, the PS3 offers HDMI out of LPCM, or Bitstream. Yet, Ruined says that the PS3 does NOT bitstream.

I don't have a PS3, and really have no interest in it ( But I think the GF kids want one
)but it seems like, according to Cherno, that the PS3
does bitstream...
