So I recently purchased a Sony FW series laptop which has a read only blu ray drive and an HDMI out for watching movies on an actual television. My problem is that my TV only supports Dolby audio and will not decode DTS. Sound comes through fine when watching a Dolby film but there is no sound when I try and watch a film with DTS audio.

My question comes in two parts: 1) would a standalone blu ray player (PS3 for example) modify the audio so that it would work with my televison? 2) Is there any way to format the audio coming from my laptop so that it would work with my tv i.e. become audible? Thanks in advance.

Television is an LG 42LC7D

Edit: I have been poking around forums and I think I have a vague understanding of what is going on. If you play a blu-ray movie on a PS3 it decodes the audio (DTS or Dolby) and outputs it as LCPM? I assume this is something my television will understand and be able to process correctly? My laptop is not transcoding the audio source and is putting it out at full quality and my television is choking because it has no way of processing this information (the DTS-HD stuff anyway). Please let me know if I have this right.
