How do I get Dolby TrueHD audio from my Playstation 3 with Blu-Ray?

I heard that Dolby TrueHD is the best uncompressed format for digital audio on Blu-Ray, and I also know that you can transfer TrueHD through HDMI. My audio amplifier for surround sound has a digital coaxial and optical input supported. Is it possible to get trueHD audio? Thanks for the help.How do I get Dolby TrueHD audio from my Playstation 3 with Blu-Ray?
All you need are an HDMI cable and a compatible HDMI switching or repeater receiver ( some cheapest cost around $400 ). Optical cable can't send new HD sound formats from PS3 to receiver. You have to set Linear ( Lpcm ) on PS3 HD/DVD sound settings ( don't set bitstream ), PS3 will decodes HD sound and sends it via HDMI to receiver.
Some people are a little misinformed....first of all Dolby TruHD IS COMPRESSED. But by listening to it, you would not be able to tell the difference between PCM (Uncompressed Audio). The Ps3 can also decode DTS-HD Master Audio (Also compressed, but sounds amazing). Depending on the Movie Studio, certain titles will have at least one of these encoded soundtracks. To Get These HD Sound codecs YOU NEED AN HDMI CABLE!! Optical WILL NOT WORK! Currently, The PS3 can decode all three formats, but cannot Bitstream DTS-MA to your receiver to decode. So as long as you have your PS3 decoding the audio, pretty much any receiver will work and output the HD sound.How do I get Dolby TrueHD audio from my Playstation 3 with Blu-Ray?
one issue that you'd have to deal with is that some ps3's are not yet able to output truhd to other devices, that is, the receiver. ps3 may be able to read it but not necessarily able to output it as is; output format is recognized by receivers as multi-ch pcm.

get in touch with sony to inquire if your ps3 could have a firmware update for this issue.



and by the way, since truhd is digital, sound format support should also be using digital media, that is, hdmi and optical.

You can only hear Dolby TrueHD through HDMI and analog, not Optical...
use the optical connection between both. Make sure you buy a good quality cable
