Even though my AVR supports all dolby formats , pdvd falls back to AC3 core (640Kbps

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

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,
