Why Can't I get my Denon AVR-X2000 to show True HD instead of Multi In when I'm watching Bluray Movies?

I had this problem also. I fixed it by changing the audio output setting on my bluray player to stream the audio as unprocessed.

Your Blu-Ray player is decoding the audio and passing that signal to your receiver. Since the receiver is not decoding a True HD signal in the case it won't light up. If you want to see True HD light up, set your Blu-Ray to output bitstream. It really makes no difference, you still end up with the same output in the end.

I had the same problem but solution was to by a new 3d blue ray Player (Panasonic) with 2 hdmi OUT. assign 1 for TV out the other for audio out only (this connects to your 876) and you're ready to watch 3d with full audio advantage. no need to upgrade AV-receiver since the 876 sounds amazing.

Thank you very much!As a further clarification, I assume that when you say that I "must configure its outputs for two-channel PCM," you mean that this is a menu-driven change that I can make, each time that I encounter a 'DTS only' bluray. With my current setup, I have no problem with the audio, via an optical cable, from non-DTS blurays on the BD55K. (I have a 5 speaker setup and a subwoofer.)

D. Mauro, Different signals and devices will vary. The good news is that each input is independent, so it's designed so that you can set each input to "Clear" or "Smooth" or whichever setting you most prefer for that specific input. This way, every time you switch to a different device, you don't have to change your settings. Why it's juddering? It could be signal strength or more specifically, signal compression that causes that. For some networks - or hardware - the signal needs to be compressed, and decompressed. That can have an affect on the playback. Or it could be a number of other factors as well, like the resolution that's incoming (480 to 4K, 720 to 4K and 1080 to 4K will all look different), so check your source's video menu (Blu-Ray player, Cable/Sat box, etc) to make sure you're getting at least a 720p or higher resolution, or that it's set to AUTO. Those factors can also affect picture quality. It's probably NOT the cable, we can probably fairly rule that out. Does that help? --Mr. S

I have XMBC (frodo build) installed on my EB1503 (as I use the box as a media server) it has no problems with any of the HD audio associated with video codecs (DTS & Dolby TrueHD). I've never tried streaming from an online source (as I only have DSL). My audio/video goes over HDMI to my Onkyo TX-NR608. My experience would say that it is your decoding software having problems, not the EB1503 hardware.

Several years ago (2010?) HDCP became mandatory for player output of HD video and that requires HDMI. Therefore, no relatively recent BD player can do what you want. The only solution would be an external box that supports HDMI w/HDCP and outputs RGB. I suggest you go to a forum such as "AVS Forum" and ask for advice in the CRT projector sub-forum. Those guys have/had to deal with the same issue.PS. There used to be a converter box available from the Far East that was referred to as a "Moome" box, don't know whether it's still available or if there's something else. Several years ago (2010?)

Hi Dennis,Try pressing the test tone button on the remote, and see if your getting sound from all speakers. Also, did you use the RCA cables from the BD player to the Onkyo? ( one for each speaker ) Don't forget to choose the right format from the Blu-ray disk ( Dolby truehd / DTS HD master audio ) If your still having a problem, let me know..I can probably walk you through a little more detail.Tom

I didn't play with it enough to see if the Bluray INPUTS sounds from the HDMI. (I believe the HDMI is for output.) The optical digital is easy to pipe any sound that would normally be coming out of the TV into the bluray. ie VCR, Wii, laptop. Set the bluray on "TV" and it plays whatever the TV speakers would be playing. (I'll have to check if there is an "HDMI input" mode on the Bluray.)-Will

I believe it to be true and originally ran HDMI to the TV (DirecTV HD-DVR and PS3) and then optical audio out to my receiver. The sound just didn't "pop" out and then I read the TV manual on a whim and couldn't believe that the output only is in 2-channel. I later read somewhere that it is intentional for copyright reasons. Unfortunately, my Surround Sound Receiver also has an annoying limitation whereby it switches HDMI but does not extract the audio from the HDMI connection. So, the workaround for me was to connect the HDMI (for video only) to the TV, keep the TV volume at zero, and connect the digital audio sources from the components to the receiver (which only has two optical audio inputs.) The sound and audio were offset but most good receivers will let you adjust to get them back in-sync.

Hi Tom,I've done everything you said and that I can think of and still no dice. So I'm done trying to figure it out. I used to get pretty good surround from the the TV programs that are broadcast HD 5.1 but it seems to be gone also. I have to say that the despite all this, it does sound pretty good if stereo is what I was going for. Thanks for all your help. I really appreciate it.Take care,Dennis

Dear B. Ben,The DT soundbar will not pass a 4K signal. Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.Regards,Eric CohenWorld Wide Stereo

Unfortunately no simply because it's not a spliter. There is a tiny switch on it to change from the HD mode and standard. It's one or the other.

Chris , awesome u got an 1222K. Its a great AVR. Go to a thred just on our receiver? Its called avr 1222k . Go to this? U can have any question answered to our AVR. ...But the answer to ur question is only comes on when ur playing something thats picking up one of the signals including ur DTs-HD.. So as long as ur playing something thats sending one of the Dolby signal.... Good luck Chris.

Alright, thanks for answering! I think I'll have to get a hdmi to vga converter to at least have the picture in HD then buy a bluray player later on.
