I know that these kind of questions have been asked to death, but I don't recall seeing specific info regarding this question:

I have a PS3 hooked up via HDMI to an Onkyo 805 hdmi 1.3-capable receiver. As there is no capability to receiver DD TrueHD and DTS MA HD in the PS3 yet, I have the PS3 audio set to Linear PCM rather than Bitstream.

When I play a standard DVD in the PS3 that has DTS audio, the DTS icon on the front of the receiver does not light up. So, I'm wondering if the receiver is outputting DTS in this situation, or would I need to change from PCM to Bitstream in the PS3 in order to receive DTS?
