I'm hoping this is the right place to post this, since all the other forums are very specific.

I just bought the Watchmen Blu-ray disc, and am running it through my PS3 hooked up to my Onkyo 605.

Without changing any settings (since everything else seems to work fine), the Onkyo reported playing in PLIIx Movie. If I hit info on the PS3, it said it was playing the DTS-HD MA track.

Am I actually hearing that track, or should I be seeing DTS on my Onkyo? I've tried changing bitstream/PCM settings on the PS3 and can't get the Onkyo to show what I think it should. I just want to make sure I'm not getting a stereo signal that my Onkyo is trying to convert into surround.

Thanks much,

Ryan

How is your PS3 connected to the receiver? If via HDMI, it should be set to pass MPCM, not bitstream. If not via HDMI then you are not going to get DTS-HD.
