:-)

We actually don't know if a G68 or 861 could be configured for 7.1 inputs (with new firmware). There was a long debate on this. My guess is that even if the new device supports 7.1 it could be configured to support 5.1 and work with a 568.2mm (probably a function of how the player is setup as well).

If you think listening to music is fun, try learning an instrument.

How much software is 7.1? It would not be the first time that M have not supported a format because it is a minority product - think DTS ES and 6.1.

I've heard reports that most (all?) "7.1" soundtracks out there have the extra two channels derived from the original 5.1. This may change over time, of course.

Quite. So from the M perspective, what is the point of introducing 7.1 inputs (assuming it is not a trivial matter of bridging a fourth digital input) if you can achieve the same by taking the 5.1 signal and deriving 7.1 from within the processor. In this scenario, the only benefit is to the marketeers who can tick the "7.1 input" box on their product spec.
