with the HDMI being just for video pass through, it appears to not be able to get any true 7.1 audio. Is the only 7.1 audio that I can get just 5.1 processed and made into a 7.1 signal?
I finally got a 1080p tv (Mit. 60638)and just hooked my ps3 to it via HDMI. I see that it says that it 7.1 master audio when hooked up that way.
To get surround sound, I have my ps3 hooked up to my Onkyo via optical.
So is there no way for me to get true 7.1 out of this receiver?
Also, when the volume is up (not too loud, but theater loud) the receiver will click, shut off, and flash a red light. I turn it back on, turn down the volume, and when a loud scene comes on, it shuts off again. Are there any easy ways to fix this? Is it shot? How much would it be to fix it? Could I fix it it myself?
I realize that buying a new receiver is ideal, but I just got the TV and 3D glasses so I have no spare money!
