I have connected my new Panasonic dvd-s77s to my Mitsubishi wd-52725 TV via the HDMI interface. When checking the HDMI status on the DVD's menu, it shows that HDMI audio output is 2 channel rather than the Dolby Digital I expected. I have been through every setting in the manual and I cannot get the output to change. The manual for the TV states that it can pass-through digital audio so why can't I get HDMI interface to send it.
If anyone can help me with this I would appreciate it.
HDMI has been a very buggy standard to begin with.
I suggest going the old fashioned route:
Connect the player to the TV using the DVI or component connections and the analogue audio feed while connecting the receiver/decoder using the coax or optical digital connection. - Reinhart
