For these lossless formats to work, the Blu-Ray Player (or AVR) must uncompress the compressed audio file and then output it as PCM which can then be converted from digital to analog. This can be done either in the Blu-Ray Player (if it supports decoding the format) or it can be done in the AVR (if it supports decoding the format). From an engineering perspective there should be no difference in where this decoding is done. If the player decodes the audio and sends it as digital PCM information to the AVR, the data should be identical to what you would get if the player sent bitstream (raw DTS-MA or Dolby True-HD data) to the AVR for decoding.
Huh? Thatās really weirdā¦ Weāve only had positive feedback since the last audio changes which also fixed HRA for the affected (mostly Denon) users. Nobody else has reported issues with passthrough sinceā¦
And I still have this issue. I got used to it. I need to run the file, perhaps 5 times, so that the receiver recognizes the stream and to hear the sound. But when I click to pause, I need to do this procedure again.
But now the DC-HD HRA is properly recognized by the receiver, before it showed that it is DTS-HD MA.
