Hi all, recently came across this fourm and am loving all the great advice so far. Maybe you can help me out.
I recently upgraded to a Samsung UN55EH6001 Led tv and can only get some shows to actually play in either DTS or Dolby Digital with my old Pioneer HTP2500B receiver. I plan on getting a new receiver however it may be as late as christmas time before I can actually do that and would like to still surround before then.
Im playing mostly through my PS3 as well as some cable channels. I can get my HD cable channels to work fine and all downloaded movies on my PS3 work fine. Only some blurays Ive tried actually work netflix wont play any sound unless i select stereo mode only.
Im running one hdmi from ps3 to tv and then a digital optical cable from tv to receiver. My old receiver wont really work with any other setup. I actually will get no sound at all on certain blurays like Rise of the Planet of the Apes or netflix, unless I switch it like I said, only when I try and select on the ps3 the any other outputs other than the linear pcm 2 channel. Ive tried sending it both under PS3 settings in Linear pcm and bitstream and I still have same results.
Will leaving the Sound Settings on PS3 with the auto HDMI output of Linear pcm 2 channel still allow surround when available or do I need to change the settings to get the best sound with my current setup?

but will be my next purchase. Just looking for suggestions on how to get the best sound out until I do upgrade.
