Yep,

I use a coax cable from the PC to my Sony receiver.

The only problem I have is with DTS movies... as the sound stutters

There is a slider that allows you to adjust the audio delay while playing a video. Press the INFO button on the remote control to display the OSD, select the "Audio" icon, and then...
