Dear friends,
I have been a follower of this forum for a long time and many thanks for sharing all your valuable insights. I have a question that has been bugging me for a long time. I did search and found some related threads but not able to get conclusive answers. Appologies if this has been already answered.
I bought HT recently ( Onkyo 307 receiver with pure accostics speakers). Intend to buy a media player like WD TV or Xtreamer. 307 does not process hd audio thru hdmi, so wanted to know how do these media players handle files with hd audio over optical. Do they
1. do they downmix hd dts and hd dd to normal 5.1 dts and dd respectively or
2. downmix this to 2.1 stereo or
3. will not send anything over optical ?
Regards,
Ravi
