I'm having a problem getting Dolby Digital sound from my DVD player. I have the Samsung hooked to the Pioneer via digital coaxial cable. When playing a movie, the digital label shows up on my AVR. However, the signal is only digital, not Dolby Digital which is a separate label. I've checked the DVD disc menu to make sure it is DD 5.1 mode. The AVR is on the DVD/LD input source. I have a DVD 5.1 input source, but when I switch to it I get no sound. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong here?

Not sure if you've solved this. To get Dolby Digital over Coax the output must be set from PCM to Bitstream in the Audio Setup menu.

Digital Out
- PCM : Converts to PCM(2CH) audio.
- Bitstream : Outputs Dolby Digital via digital output.
Select Bitstream when connecting to a Dolby Digital Decoder.

Enjoy,

John
