    Default MKV`s and DTS

    When I play back an MKV in DTS, it shows up as Pro Logic. Is this a known bug? I have an Onkyo receiver. DD plays back fine. Thank you.

    MKV files with DTS play back on my Onkyo Receiver as DTS Neo:6. I have an Onkyo TX-SR606.

    ye the boxee box is f*cked with onkyo-receivers it seems.

    i have that problem on multiple audio-streams

    sometimes it shows one thing, the next time it shows something else etc..

    like sometimes it actually outputs dts-hd master as dts

    so the boxee box has some serious issues with the audio in onkyo (might be other receivers too?)

    i guess some ppl will blame the onkyo now, but as ive never had this problem with another mediabox or any other hardware its quite obvious its the boxee box where the problem is.
    Boxee Box (latest firmware) connected with HDMI to Onkyo TX-SR606 and HDMI to Mitsubishi HC1100 projector. 106" Grandview Large Flat Screen Series and ELAC Starlet 7.1. Everything controlled with Harmony 1100 and Harmony RF Wireless Extender. (+ Manta TR1 USB IR-Reciever for Boxee Box)

    Streaming wired thru D-Link DIR-655 (Hardware: A4/Firmware: 1.31EU) from server with Intel Pentium 4 Duo 3,4GHz and 4GB RAM running Windows 7 Ultimate on Seagate SATA-harddrives.

    I have a 606 and don't see that issue at all. How many streams are you encoding? Have you tried switching streams?

    Onyko TX-SR606 • Netgear ReadyNAS Pioneer Pro NVX

    Default no problemos

    Gentlemen I have a Pioneer 820D, all devices are connected via HDMI. (Boxee, Xbox360 and DVDPlayer). Boxee plays MKV's with DD(AC3) or DTS excellently. The Pioneer receiver switches accordingly to DD or DTS.
    Keep up the good work.

    Well, after cycling through the different playback modes, DTS does show up in the Neo 6 mode. So, I stand corrected and I`m a happy man.
