I have a Yamaha RX-V640 (maybe in the near future to be a Denon 1909/789 or the Pio 1018), and I have a philips dvd player (dvp5960) connected to it via digital coax (the video is going to my samsung HLT6176S via HDMI) but for some reason I only get stereo sound (it only shows the LF and RF speakers on the receiver's screen).

Can I only get 2 channels via digital coax?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Problem solved... I changed the video connection to component and it all worked... I guess the dvd thinks the audio will be going thru hdmi or something... anyway... now I can enjoy 5.1
