When the 976 is set to the direct surround mode, it will be processing whatever the incoming signal is.
For TV watching, I set my converter box to output PCM and set my 976 to all channel stereo. This is fine for me as I don't watch any movies through my converter box, usually only local news.

Try using one of the upmixing choices, like Pro Logic IIx Movie. That might do the trick.
