Hey man, if you need to buy a Mac and have two computers at your desk, then so be it!

So they actually told you that their product was substantially inferior to Final Cut Pro for your application? That's hilarious.

Jimmy,

I still don't quite get how you are getting true Dolby? Everything that I've read says it's only available via HDMI 1.2 which very few AVR's have or, six channel analogue. And if you run it through analogue, you only get 5.1. At least that's my understanding of it, and I don't understand much. So far just about every HD disk I have has played in DTS and I haven't noticed any improvements. I'd like to do whatever it is you are to get better sound.....is it a Denon Link thing?

I finally got around to watching the HD version of Mutiny on the Bounty last night. What a good movie! I really enjoyed it and seeing Marlon Brando skinny was quite a shock to me. This is the first time I've ever been able to sit through this movie as it was always on TV and barley viewable to me. In HD it's not on par with the new HD DVD's, but the video is very good. They didn't do much with the sound though. There's no LFE track that I could detect, and I'm not real sure what in the heck was going on, but every now and then, I'd get a 'pop' or other weird noise from one of the speakers. Not often enough to stop the movie, but enough to get irritating. I though my battery was going dead in my smoke detector so I changed it out. Well it wasn't the smoke detector.....

If you are going thru HDMI(1.1) this is how you get Dolby TrueHD - The XA1 or A1 will decode the TrueHD for you to PCM then sent to Denon 4306. You do not need HDMI 1.2a,1.3 on your AVR to get DD THD the player is the decoder.I think I said that right.

Geektastic.

Oh, you dont have the new firmware.Thats your problem,the new FW enables D True HD. When you get your disk set HDMI audio out for PCM and thats all folks. You will think you have hit the lottery! Why not just DL online?
