With my HT setup I can achieve 5.1 sound with Blueray and satellite, but with Netflix through Roku 3 my receiver reads PMC 2.0. The audio setting on the Roku are (Auto DD+DTS).

I read the Roku/Samsung Netflix threads but I didn't find any answers there.

Any ideas?

Not all movies are streamed with 5.1 sound on Netflix. Does the movie itself indicate that the audio is 5.1?

I tried several movies and shows that were 5.1 according to Netflix.

In addition to the Roku setting, did you also select 5.1 within the Netflex App?

There are certain AVR's that have issues processing 5.1 audio on the Netflix app. If all else fails, you may want to consider trying a different receiver or settle for DD prologic.

I figured it out.

Netflix audio settings changed to stereo and 720p at some point. I'm not sure how but all is good now.

Thanks
