I'm relatively clueless about receivers, so any help I can get on this would be much appreciated.
I just bought a Sony STR DE810. It has 3 HDMI inputs, to which I have connected an HD DVD player, Blu-ray player and DVD player.
HD DVD and Blu-ray are working great. The DVD player, a fairly cheap LG I use for multi-region discs, won't give me 5.1, only 2CH. I have tried changing every setting on the receiver, every setting in the player, and nothing works.
This is driving me nuts - can anyone help? I know I'm not giving a lot of info, but I can't understand how HDMI wouldn't be passing everything that's on the DVD.
