[QUOTE="ixian, post: 421635, member: 54932"] Good question. Upstairs, on my main media/TV server, my PC feeds audio over HDMI to my receiver, and I do get the DD 5.1 symbol to light up when I hit channels that are broadcast with it, and Dolby Pro Logic for the rest. Downstairs I am using a MSI Diva Media board in the living room, which is an AMD 780g board paired with a unique and proprietary amplifier card. The whole setup has it's issues (believe me) but after working them out it's turned in to a very decent all in one solution. I appear to be getting 5.1 out of it too, but I can't be sure. I should look in to that. I am using the optical out from my Dish STB to the optical in on the HDPVR. As for the iMon, it's only on the upstairs PC, which I rarely view direct (it's also my TV Server/Recodings box, but I mostly use my clients for viewing). Downstairs both my clients use regular MCE remotes. [/QUOTE]
