[QUOTE="HTPCSourcer, post: 1110533, member: 74879"] Yes, that's exactly right. You can use either of the three options above, but nothing else. The question is why you are so keen on 5.1. Music is PCM-Stereo, TV is DolbyDigital (AC3) and DVD is DTS. You "lose" advanced formats such as DTS-HD and your games will play stereo only. You can use your AV Receiver to upmix PCM to something higher, but keep in mind that you are then listening to something that was not there originally. [/QUOTE]
