I'm wondering if Dish Network broadcasts their channels (including local) in dolby digital 5.1?
I've connected my receiver to my stereo through the dolby digital optical port. I've set up receiver to output dolby digital & PCM through this port. (If I select only DD, then no sound is output at all). My stereo sees the optical cable and outputs sound in Pro Logic, not DD.
I was watching CSI and the brodcast said DD 5.1. I expected it to come through my stereo as 5.1, but no, it was Pro Logic.
I'm out of ideas on my end. I'm thinking that Dish only has a few PPV channels that are actually 5.1.
