hey thanks, I thought I may have worded the question wrong.

I was talking about the audio portion of the program. I use an oppo 93 and when I used it in conjunction with my adcom gtp 860 if bitstream was chosen as the output, it would default to DTS or whatever codec was available from the bit stream like csi from VUDU I think it would default to dts as an example.

I get you on the remote you can assign an input a default setting like 7 channel stereo etc and then toggle between the various settings , noe 6, etc. I was just wondering if on bitstream the brain on the 990 would pick up on what is actually being transmitted. I may call support, I did the other day and they were very nice. Sometimes on forums I fail to word my question correctly because I lack some basic knowledge.

thanks for your reply
