First off I really like this player. When I 1st tried it I could not get it to play smooth but on the 2nd time I was able to make use of the setup suggestions that were given to me and it works great now so I bought it, Thanks for all the work that has been put in to it.
It’s taking me some time to figure it out. It’s nice that that 7.1 audio is fully supported. This is the purpose of this post. PDVD 11 did not support 7.1 through the analogs. With JRiver if it’s 6 or 7.1 it shows it as 7 or 8 channels. Something I’m just discovering is almost all my full BD25 that should be 7.1 are actually in 6 channels. A few like Star wars 4, 5 and 6 that are 6.1 and have the dedicated back channel, almost all the others do not work properly. I even checked a few of the originals like Hugo 3D and LORs they are also read as a 5.1.
What I’m not sure is it an Anydvd rip or a BDRB encode or the movie studio’s errors.
On the 3 star wars movies only 4 has audio being passed to the back channel 5 and 6 are seen as a 6.1 movie but the back channel is dead silent through the entire movie.
