PS3 will not play dolby digital surround sound! Help?
Posted on Dec 29, 2009 under Digital news and reports |I am hooking up my ps3 through a HDMI cable to my T.V. and I have an optical cable going to my surround sound receiver from my T.V. (which is also an upconvert DVD player, which that does go through dolby digital)…… When I play ANYTHING on the PS3, whether it be a game or a blu-ray it is all 2-channel and not dolby digital. But when I plug in a movie in the upconvert DVD player, it works with dolby digital.
Also, I have tried messing around with the settings on the PS3, but I am not really sure on how to get it to work!

Make sure the optical audio output on the PS3 is set to "Bitstream" and not "PCM". Optical connections do not allow 5.1 surround audio unless it is in a compressed bitstream format (such as Dolby Digital or DTS). If you set optical output to PCM, then only 2.0 stereo PCM is allowed (an uncompressed format). An HDMI connection can allow 5.1 and 7.1 uncompressed PCM, but you would need an HDMI capable receiver to use that.

Connect optical cable from PS3 to receiver, not from TV to receiver.
