No DTS or Dolby Digital audio via HDMI Out on A200
I don't seem to get digital output via my HDMI cable.

The settings in my Audio preferences are:
- HDMI-Out: On
- All set to "Passthrough"

I have:
- A (proper) HDMI cable between my NMT and the TV.
- An optical cable between the TV and the receiver.

When playing a movie with a DTS audio track (or Dolby Digital), the TV only receives audio in PCM (stereo) via the HDMI cable.

When connecting the NMT to the receive directly (using a coax cable), the DTS is received correctly.

Note that on other equipments (Homecast satelite tuner) the digital audio via HDMI plays fine.

RE: No DTS or Dolby Digital audio via HDMI Out on A200
If i read the specifications on http://www.samsung.com/uk/consumer/tv-au...LUXXU-spec

It says that there is no DTS MA or Dolby Truehd support.

So when you are listening too a bluray or MKV file with DTS MA or DOLBY TrueHD you will not hear any sound and it will not really work. You need too downsample those ....

RE: No DTS or Dolby Digital audio via HDMI Out on A200
When I connect to my receiver directly (with Coax) I get proper DTS or Dolby Digital. So, the NMT sends out digital audio just fine.

Note that other devices that are connected to my TV (such as the Homecast satellite tuner) sends out Dolby Digital just fine through HDMI.
So, the TV supports it (I'm not talking about DTS HD or Dolby Digital TrueHD).

The problem is, that when I connect my NMT to the TV (HDMI), I only hear Stereo (PCM). So note that I DO hear sound. So, it looks like it is downsampling everything that goes through HDMI.
