Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners Got my HK 630!!! (Question)

...yes

Also while the moive is playing I am able to switch between DD5.1, 2chnnl stereo, DTS, etc... all the modes pick up on the HK but when I leave it on DTS the AVR jsut says UNLOCK.

also make sure your DVD player is outputting "bitstream" for DTS....some are defaulted to PCM.

Hi Inane,

I was just wondering, what is your current speaker set-up?

I don't know where to check for bitstream vs PCM on this old Panasonic DVD player.... hmmmm

As far as speakers, I'm just using this old rag tag setup of crap I've had for years (ashamed to say, KLH center/surrounds with recently hooked up ancient pair of Advent bookshelfs I had collecting dust), I should be ordering my Axioms in a couple weeks!

Hello Inane,

Hope you are well. I also have the AVR 630, if you output PCM from your DVD player you can only select non digital modes on the AVR 630. Once you change to Bitstream then the 630 will automatically switch to the selection made when you do your DVD audio setup.

My DVD player is an older Samsung DVD P401 progressive scan, and in its sound setup has selections for both bitstream and DTS on or off. If just bitstream is on you are limited to Dolby Digital, with both bitstream and DTS on you can select DTS or Dolby Digital from the audio menus of the DVD you are playing. The AVR 630 will not let you change modes with the AVR 630 remote manually, it will select the proper mode on its own only.

Hope this helps,

TonyM

Ya its prob a setting on the DVD player I guess... of course I bought this baby before anyone even thought of progressive outputting. It's older.
