    Pass DTS HD master and true HD?

    How can I get the 1550 to pass DTS HD master and True HD audio through the optical out?

    Reason I ask. I have a pair of pioneer wireless surround headphones that I use late at night. There is no issue when I select and play normal DTS or Dolby Digital tracks from blu rays- but last night i tried to select the DTS master audio track and I get silence.

    Are these tracks only passable over HDMI?

          Is it possible this will be allowed through a future update?

              No. Optical and Coax digital (S/PDIF) are not capable of passing uncompressed multi-channel sound and never will be. They lack sufficient bandwith I believe.

                  Using a non-HDMI processor for DTS-HD and True-Dolby
                  by SoundEngine355
                  Hi,

                  I've been looking at a number of bluray players and some have either 5.1 or 7.1 analog output along with onboard decoding of all the latest formats/codecs, if my proccessor/receiver has 5.1/7.1 analog inputs can I not just connect it via those to receive DTS-HD and True-Dolby?

                  Hi.

                  I have connected my PS3 with HDMI to my Rotel RSP-1570.

                  by wettou
                  I am confused:

                  I heard that if you have a blu ray player like the Sony BDP-S550 that decodes DTS HD Master Audio and Dolby Digital Tru HD hooked up to a receiver that does not have the capability to decode these format but has HDMi 1.3 that you can still have the audio in the movies in...
