Dtv Thread - azure - 25-06-2008 Must admit its been many many moons since I've actually stayed in Melbourne. I have frequently passed through the airport over the years. And, I must say its my favourite airport. I like how the Hilton is in walking distance, and I usually try to make the transfer around lunchtime. <img src='http://www.melbournechat.org/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> A friend from Sydney is moving down there next month so it gives me an excuse to arrange an extended stay.

I used the new Rambo movie as it's the only 7.1 HD MA disc I have. Playing the movie, no PIP or anything, it shows up on the 3800 as 7.1 ch although the 3800 has glitch with 5.1 HD MA being bitstreamed to it where it shows up as 7.1, but there was sound from the rears and the on screen display for the PS3 shows it as 7.1 DTS HD MA. <img src='http://www.melbournechat.org/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> Using PIP it put both tracks out as 2ch DD. <img src='http://www.melbournechat.org/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> As I said I have to get onto Mo and check I did everything right.
