I've got a vanilla blue-ray player connected to my 975. The BR is set to 5.1 sound. I THINK the 975 is as well, but it won't play out the rears.
Now, with an Xbox One it works fine (using the speaker test, where the grunt points at the current speaker as he talks through it), so I know it's connected correctly.
The manual is absolutely impossible to figure out. What scrolls by on the 975's display bears little resemblance to what's printed in the manual. The abbreviations are too hard to figure out.
So, what setting(s) do I have to use to watch a movie with 5.1 sound?
The display screen scrolling for 5.1 audio, for example, would show (3/2).1. The 3 is for the front sound stage, left, center, right. The 2 is for surround left,right. The .1 for the sub, naturally.
What can be confusing are the parenthesizes before and after the 3/2. The first one looks like the letter'C'.
The Edit boxes, and Letters, to the right of the display show the discreet signal format (all the letters), and your active speakers (all the boxes).
