7.1 and DVD inputs NEED ADVICE - 10/10/12 08:21 AM
I'm using my 990's 7.1 inputs from a Panasonic DMP-BD55 Bluray player. I also have the Bluray player connected via optical (assigned to DVD) so when watching standard DVD I can use the 990's decoding instead of the players. I have noticed something weird at times and I was wondering if anyone has had the same issue or has any advice. There are times when watching standard DVD via optical when I notice the front screen of the 990 displaying Dolby Digital and Pro Logic II. When displayed like this the sound is great. It has great low end extension and full bodied. Other times I see simply Dolby Digital displayed and the sound is very thin and is lacking most of the low end extension. I also notice this at times when watching HD cable which is connected to Video 1 via a coax digital cable. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
