Hi,

Which specs/ settings in a blu-ray player do I have to look for if I want to output the Dolby Digital/ DTS signals untouched (via HD621) to the processor and let my 568.2MM do the decoding instead of the blu-ray player (thinking of buying a Pioneer BDP-LX52, Denon 4010UD or Marantz UD8004).

I read somewhere on these excellent forums that the Oppo for instance can output via one single HDMI cable the decoded hi-res signals as LPCM and the vanilla DD/DTS signals untouched.

Can I assume this works the same for the Pioneer, Denon and Marantz blu-ray players?

Regards,
Bob
