[mythtv-users] Dolby Digital Signal indicator on Receiver

[dexter sl]

Hi everyone, I have a Denon AVR-2700.  Right now my mythfrontend is hooked up via the optical connection from my Turtle Beach Riviera.  I get sound for my recordings, mythvideo, and mythdvd all through the SPDIF including 5.1 apparently, and I get sound from my receiver just fine.  

Whats interesing is now that I am getting 5.1 to my surround sound system I see the Dolby "Pro Logic" indicator light up, I see the "DIGITAL" indicator light up and the "LOCK" green indicator light up, but I don't actually see the "Dolby Digital" red indicator light up.

Now when the THX intro plays on movies from my mythfrontend, I here the sound moving through the speakers like I normally would when playing from a regular DVD player outputting Dolby Digital 5.1, with the exception that the "Dolby Digital" red indicator lights up when the 5.1 comes from a regular DVD player, but not when it comes from the mythfrontend.

So, Dolby Digital appears to by working fine from my mythfrontend, I am just curious if anyone can explain why my "Dolby Digital" indicator might not light up even though I am hearing the 5.1 audio through my surround sound system.
