Obviously the best option is to pass through uncompressed Dolby HD directly but XBOX does not support HDMI 1.3 - so the new DTS 1.5Mb output option is still a decent improvement (or you can now select the uncompressed PCM option - if you don't mind stereo).

Oh, for those who need to find this option - when playing a HD DVD, select display and choose audio option which will bring up new menu.]]>May 16th 2007 7:41AMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2007/05/16/xbox-360-hd-dvd-add-on-drive-update/http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/05/16/xbox-360-hd-dvd-add-on-drive-update/
So, would I be better left setting it to DTS even if a Dolby track is playing? Output over optical of course.

Or, better yet, what should the audio settings be for the entire system to achieve the best quality it can muster?]]>May 16th 2007 3:59PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2007/05/16/xbox-360-hd-dvd-add-on-drive-update/http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/05/16/xbox-360-hd-dvd-add-on-drive-update/if your receiver supports it, i would suggest wmapro @ 1.5mbps. it has been compared to as the vc1 of audio codecs. i am currently running the hddvd drive at these settings on my pioneer receiver and have been very happy with the results. ]]>May 16th 2007 5:21PM
