DTS-HD Master Audio

Hello!

Does anyone know of a Blu-Ray player that has the DTS-HD Master Audio sound capability? A lot of reviews out that saying most of these latest Blu-Ray players out there do not decode DTS-HD Master Audio.

I have a receiver that has the DTS-HD Master Audio logo in front. I am looking for a Blu-Ray player that can has the DTS-HD Master Audio sound format so I can listen to it with my receiver.

Thanks for any advice!!

This, btw, is one of my pet peeves about BR, as well as DVDs: Lots of busy, noisy menus with absolutely no standardization.
...including no consistent default--sometimes it's DD5.1 and sometimes it's the highest resolution blu-ray codec available, such as TrueHD, DTS-HD MA or DDPlus.

Hello - You can't bitstream Dolby true Hd or DTS HD Master Audio over a Coax. or optical connection - The new formats carry way to much information for the those digital connections - The only way to bitstream is via HDMI - If your Bluray has on board decoding of those formats then you could send them out analog to your receiver or pre/pro 5.1 or 7.1 analog inputs - Hope that Helps

It is not the amount of information. It IS the copy PROTECTION. Thus the HDMI.

Firedrums/Srwooten:
No matter the reason, you both are correct... I have a ps3 for blu-ray, and you MUST use HDMI. Also, you must use linear PCM, which carries the entire signal, decoded, to the receiver. Bitstream is compressed.
