Can surround sound pass from ps3, to hdtv, then to receiver?
Question: Currently, my ps3 connects to my hdtv via hdmi, and the hdtv connects to the receiver via optical Mailgram. Sound is passing through, and it matches up with the video, but does not occur to be the 5.1 signal. As my receiver has only one optical input (currently joined to tv),
Answer: It all depends on the TV. Some will not even withstand Dolby Digital via HDMI. Some accept DD, but they just obsolete it through, and some will accept DD but only pass through PCM. So, check your TV's specs. (Most TVs will not process DTS either).
