So does this mean that a media player (I'm assuming mplayer, but can be
whatever) can now output Dolby TrueHD and/or DTS MasterHD as a bitstream out
the HDMI port on an nVidia card?  Or is it limited to decoding everything to
LPCM?  Does it keep 7.1/6.1?  Is this something that anyone has in place?
Is there a HOWTO?
