Sony bdp settings. Help please.
Advice please. And I thought I understood AV! I wish my amp to decode but wonder if my settings are correct. Audio HDMI @ auto DSDoutput mode @ ON BD audio mix @ OFF DD coax/opt @ downmox PCM DTS coax/opt @ downmox PCM DTS Neo6 @ off Downmix @ stereo Cheers
I have the Sony BDP-S790 so not sure if the Audio Properties will be exactly the same, they look similar to the old Sony BDP-S380 i had from memory.
These are my settings & it Bitstreams to my A/V Amp.
Audio (HDMI) - Auto
DSD Output Mode - Off
BD Audio MIX Setting - Off
Dolby Digital / DTS - Bitstream
DTS Neo:6 - Off
Audio DRC - Off
Downmix - Stereo
Regards ...
Many thanks f1. I guess we both wish the amp rather than bdp to process. A couple of settings for me to check
Hope it is some help. By the way the DSD setting is just to set the output audio mode for the HDMI when playing SACD & i cant tell you what effect this has as i do not own any SACD's.
The amp, as far as i am concerned, is built to do the processing so should be better at it.

Downmix / stereo was one which puzzled me from the user manual. I think the others, where we differ, only apply to optical/digital coax and as you say the save setting. Is it only me that finds these settings confusing? Cheers again f1.
Realizing my bdp is also connected thru AV2 I need to check some other options now!
Av2 not great. HDMI front&sub is best. Any other be settings please post. Cheers
Hello Robin,
I have a Pansonic DMR BWT720 and when I select SOUND I am able to chose DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT then I can select either Bitstream or PCM for all Dolby and then all DTS. I triead both Bitstream which my Onkyo 905 decodes and PCM which my Panasonic decodes and my Onkyo says MULTI. I prefered PCM with my B&W 685 Theatre speakers.
I hope this helps someone else from Kidder. I like your photos and room treatment.
Best Wishes
Chris
Thank you kind sir. Not at home to experiment right now but will keep you informed. Cheers
