Blu-ray Movies With Dolby Truehd
Dolby TrueHD 5.1 not working on a ps3 bluray?
I have a bluray that i’m trying to use on my ps3 and it does Dolby TrueHD 5.1 sound but it’s not working, it says audio format not supported so it goes to dolby digital 2.0, but dolby digital 5.1 always works with other blurays or ps3 games on my speaker system so how do i get it to play in 5.1 for this dvd as well? if it helps the bluray i am playing is this:

Thank you!
There is a difference between Dolby Digital 5.1 and Dolby TrueHD 5.1. The PS3 did NOT support passing a Dolby TrueHD or DTS-HD bitstream over HDMI to the receiver. The PS3 does include an on-board Dolby TrueHD decoder which converts TrueHD into multi-channel PCM and analog sound.
So if you want to take advantage of TrueHD with the PS3 and your receiver, then you actually have to set the Blu-Ray Disc audio output setting for HDMI (in the PS3′s BD/DVD settings menu) to “PCM” instead of “bitstream.” This will allow the PS3 to losslessly expand the Dolby TrueHD soundtrack into pure multi-channel PCM for decoding by your receiver. You will get better results that way than by sending a regular compressed Dolby Digital signal to the receiver as you are doing now.
Currently when you set the PS3′s HDMI audio output to “bitstream,” advanced audio codecs such as Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio are “truncated” to their “core” Dolby Digital and DTS components, thereby losing quite a bit of the audio data, which makes the sound quality suffer.
So make sure your PS3 is up to date on firmware and try that.
