martin01: When I say that "Beosystem 3 supports this", I mean that BS3 can handle decoded sound from a BR-player thru Multichannel PCM and then we will get the new HD-sound. I know and what im saying is I have PS3 that outputs HD sound via HDMI to BS3 and I am not getting HD sound- B&O say you dont get HD sound, my engineer says im not

martin01: "Martin, it's not just as simple as including a software codec" Moxxey, I know that it is not just a software issue. If BS3 should be able to decode the new HD-codecs, then B&O have to change their HDMI-interface from 1.1 to 1.3a. They have to change A LOT in the software. But I still dont know why we argue about this. I

'the proof of the pudding is in the eating' When I first acquired BS3 I was keen to show its capability to an engineer who is well versed in manufacture of AV. On selecting true HD ( on a dvd that he also had a copy of)- the comment was- very nice, let me know when it supports HD audio! and was given the benefit of a demonstration on his equipment

martin01: Alright guys, time to sort things out again: 1. The question about if Beosystem 3 support Multichannel PCM 96khz/24bit: YES, it support this. I have talked to a person at B&O who works with this and he confirms that BS3 support this. This DOES NOT mean that BS3 will decode the HD-codecs. I repeat what I wrote erlier in this thread: You

Razlaw: beopaul: Does the BS3 support (officially or otherwise) PCM? It's not listed in the spec. Does it support 192KHz/24bit PCM? If not, then we certainly have a problem here. -- Paul I can not find anything in the specifications for the BS3 regarding PCM. However, check out the specifications for the DVD 2 on the Bang and Olufsen page. It does

Razlaw: My dealer just confirmed to me that BV7 DOES support decoded Dolby TrueHD etc. A post in here earlier suggested visiting a high end dealer of products other than B and O. My dealer sells virtually every other mainstream brand, Apple, Sony, LG, Pioneer, Panasonic, Sony, Polk etc so they are familiar with the subject in general, not just B and

Razlaw: beopaul: Ok, there's lots of confusion here. I feel I have the final answer and will provide references: In short, as long as the player has the appropriate decoder and outputs PCM, the BS3 can handle ANY format! This includes True-HD and DTS-HD Master Audio, with ZERO loss in quality. When a receiver receives PCM, it has no clue what codec

beopaul: 355f: HDMI 1.3 was established as a standard for hidef audio to some degree, and its manufacturer dependant,there is reverse compatability so that in certain circumstances with certain brands, if the player does the decoding and the specs of the HDMI 1.1 amp indicate that it will decode master audio- then its possible it will. I'm confused
