[QUOTE="Cyborg, post: 147341, member: 3467"] Hmm, I wonder how that can be. Decoding a bitstream format into uncompressed PCM should be a digital operation so there's either "do" or "don't" - there can't be "good" or "bad" decoding. The sound is still all digital (be it bitstream or PCM) until it reaches your DAC. Now that's interesting (and strange) as it's just the opposite for me. Netflix on PS3 offers DD 5.1 while on PS4 I see "stereo" as the only option. I thought this was just a bug in the PS4 Netflix app, but apparently not. :( Incidentally, there's one thing I wish Sony would add to PS4: the ability to manually specify which sound formats your receiver supports over HDMI (you can do that on PS3). As it is now, the PS4 only does an automatic detection, which usually fails miserably if you have an HDMI switch or splitter in between. [/QUOTE]
