Hello,
I am a bit lost when it comes to audio so I wanted to get some help to confirm my understanding of my current setup.
I got the offical XBMCBuntu Eden build installed on a ION2 nettop connected to a Yamaha RX-A2010 through HDMI.
I selected in the audio settings"DTS capable receiver" and "Dolby Digital (AC3) capable receiver", my understanding is that all audio format are passed through to my receiver, except for DTS-HD and Dolby True HD that are down-mixed to LPCM.
Is that correct ?
If I don't select "DTS capable receiver" and "Dolby Digital (AC3) capable receiver", my understanding is that all formats are decoded and send as LPCM, and it does not change anything in regard to sound quality compare to the previous settings, correct ?
Thanks !
