Right now, the internal receiver in the BV8/10 does not support decoding of the new high defenition audio standards.
The BS3 bases tellys does not either.
To go arround this, just get a good BR player like the Oppo 83, and make it decode the audio and send it as LPCM to the BV10.
So yes, the answer to your question is; "its the same with the BV8/10 tvs".
Having your BR player decoding the HD audio formats and send it through PCM is exactly the same. As LPCM is lossless, and so is DTS-MA. You wont loose any sound quality, doing it this way.
I own a BV8-40 and is using a ps3 to decode BR audio and send it to the tv via LPCM
