Problem Fixed.
Aren't I a dummy...

turned out the Onkyos DO NOT play DTS-HD out of the box.
I had thought I updated the firmware when I got this receiver 4-5 months ago, perhaps not.

thanks for the help people.

I am done with ONKYO AVR's.

Anyone want to buy 5 of them?
IS anyone able to play DTS-HD?
I have tested from 3 different computers. Nothing but 2.0 works.
TRU-HD no problem.
an update...

Been doing a little more testing...
not 100% sure but I am 3 for 3 if the dvd is DOLBY TRU HD and 0 for 10 when it is DTS MASTER AUDIO.



according to the properties from my sound output device, it supports DTS MASTER AUDIO.
I will try the disc on DVD player to confirm
Hi, I have set the properties. It says it supports all of the upper end formats.
And it does work on 1 or 2 discs.

the PCM selection is horrible, not just audiofiles can hear it.
If you look at the info you see when sending PCM you can see it is not HD (being TRU HD, DTS-HD MASTER, etc.) but it is 2.0 channels which makes it pro-logic from the 1990's.

There is barely any surround information, it is mostly center channel, no stereo in the rears.

thanks.
I have also confirmed the same issue is happening when playing an actual BR disc.

Thanks.
I am using HDMI and the right sound card as this does work for some discs.

But for most, and I think it a recent problem it will not play.

I get dolby surround and have to use PCM decoded by PowerDVD.

examples MOANA, DUNKIRK will not play.
Wonder Woman will play in HD sound.

Seems like only Wonder Woman will work right now.

When I get no audio I can normally pick PCM and only get surround sound not DD. But if I pick french or english for hearing imparied I do get DD.

Very weird.

As you can imagine I am very frustrated.
Can anyone help?

thanks,


Kevin
