Hi all

I'm trying to set up my Pioneer VSX-816k.

I have my (cheap) DVD player hooked up to receiver via digital coax cable.

With a dolby digital dvd, the dvd players detects Dolby digital, but the receiver only detects a digital input - no dolby.

When I try manually setting up the input, I only get various dolby pro logic and neo options...

I believe the cables are all hooked up right, from dvd digital out to the receiver digital coax input (1) (DVD/LD).

Don't know hot to get it to detect dolby though.. anybody have any ideas?

I've tried with various source DVDs, same problems

DVD player menu - Default is PCM output for Dolby Digital and DTS, toggle both to bittstream.

Why is default output set to 2.0 output and not 5.1??
Anyway doesn't matter.. took me 2 hours to figure it out lol, should have checked back here sooner =D
