PS3 > HDMI (and maybe optical depending on what you're doing) > Receiver > HDMI > TV
Having some issues with the PS3 not outputting Dolby Digital/DTS on DVDs.
Gear is connected as follows:
PS3 > HDMI > TV > HDMI > Receiver
When I go into the PS3 Sound Settings, I'm selecting HDMI with automatic settings, yet it only lists Linear PCM 2 Ch. 44.1/48 kHz on the 'Save Settings' page (no Dolby Digital/DTS seem to be indicated). Even though I've selected the DTS audio on the DVD, the receiver seems to be playing in only stereo or Pro Logic.
I tried manually selecting Dolby Digital/DTS in the PS3/HDMI settings, which results in NO AUDIO coming from the receiver at all!
Little help? It's driving me nuts!

Why would you need an optical connecting PS3 and receiver? Wouldn't the TV carry through the digital signal?
you wont, hdmi will carry the sound

You don't need optical, yes hdmi carries sound. I didn't say it was needed, I said "maybe depending on what you're doing". I use a optical cable because I have other devices connected to my receiver and I had to run it this way to have everything plugged in at the same time. My main point was the audio and video should go through the receiver before the tv.

Still not solving anything
So you plugged the ps3 directly into the receiver... did you run the ps3 video/audio setup again? I know on my receiver I can turn Dolby on or off..
Don't have an optical cable to use right now. I was hoping to get a fix with the current connection.
Yeah that's what I mean, still using the hdmi, did you run the setup again? What receiver do you have?
what amp do you have? does it have hdmi in?
