Vudu: no surround at all with 7.1 output

When choosing 7.1 Uncompressed I only hear 3.1 (Left, Center, Right+Sub) with no surround at all. Change settings to 5.1 uncompressed or DTS and surround in Vudu works properly. Games and Netflix play surround properly when 7.1 is chosen.

5.1 setup HDMI not working...

So my optical from xbox to receiver and selecting DTS digital is going to give me 5.1 surround?

It def sounds really good when watching netflix.. but ive always thought uncompressed 5.1 under the hdmi audio setting on the xbox would give me better surround sound?

Did you ever get this figured out? I just bought the same type of soundbar and am having the same issue.

Hi, the following link should shed some light onto the issues with 5.1 using HDMI.

I have a 5.1 surround sound & DTS or uncompressed 5.1 works fine for me but it keeps defaulting to uncompressed 7.1.

Similar issues here, uncompressed only gives stereo output even when setting to uncompressed 5.1.. Setting to bitstream 5.1 works fine. Use to be fine until recent update
