When I play 2 channel audio, my receiver always displays 7.1 48khz and disables all the PL2 options. Is there any way to make it just output the 2channel audio over hdmi on videos with only 2channel tracks?


When i play 2channel audio from my cable box over optical, it's fine and i can use PL2.

Disable non-2-channel audio output in the PS3's sound settings XMB menu. On your current settings, the PS3 is sending your AVR 2 channels of audio and 5.1 channels of emptiness. It's a pain to workaround, but that's how the PS3 works if you want to matrix anything less than 7.1.

that's retarded... is that something that might be fixed in future ps3 firmwares?

It's something that can be fixed in firmware, but the real question is if Sony will fix it. I know that there are a lot of users in this board that have the same complaint.

After four emails to Sony they finally sent me a address to send a formal complaint. I am working on the letter as I speak if any one else wants to send a letter here is the address.

Maybe if enough of us send letters they will address the issue

well, for CDs, you can disable 176.4Khz for anything but stereo, and CD's will play in stereo at that sampling rate.


For other audio, I think it would be too cumbersome to keep playing with settings...if it even worked.
