HI there ok my problem is dolby digital 5.1 will not show up on my receiver i select 5.1 on the dvd and all i get it is linear PCM and pro logic 2 when select dts 5.1 on the dvd my receiver picks that up and works fine . I use optical
Some DVD players and recievers have to be set on what type of digital input/output. Coax digital output is normaly the default setting. You might have to change the setting in the amp so it is looking for a opitical to trigger the 5.1 mode. All else fails, try using a coax digital output and see if it detects the 5.1
ok thanks that was the problem it was set to 2ch/PCM i turned it too off/bittstream it was jsut the dd 5.1 that dont work with 2ch/pcm the dts worked when it was on
