Hello,


Even though my AVR supports all dolby formats , pdvd falls back to AC3 core (640Kbps ) when playback movie with Truehd + Atmos ???

Again, it happens only in PDVD22.. Doesn't happend in DVDfab player, or stand alone Bluray player!!


When i change the audio setting in pdvd to → "Non-Decoded-High-def to external" wich TrueHD is .
PDVD automatically falls back to Non-decoded Dolby Digital/DTS and uses the AC3 core from the TrueHD track , wich sounds very Low quality i've noticed !!!

Why is PDVD so erratic and picky when it comes down to passthrough audio tracks to receivers !!!

the fact dvdfab & many othe software players, my hardware player do passthrough perfectly indicates that my receiver is perfectly capable to play the real deal .. Yet pdvd begs the differ !!


EDIT: the AVR iam refering to is an Philips Soundbar 8505/10

cheers,
