My setup is a PS3 2.4 firmware, a Sony 42" HDTV, and a kinda-old Sony reciever (one that doesn't support HDMI). I currently have my system set up like this:

PS3 HDMI ---> TV
PS3 Fiber Optic cable ---> reciever

When I don't use my surround sound, I have it set to output only through HDMI, and I mainly use my TV's generic stereo sound but I had a question. What's the difference between the Linear PCM and Bitstream? Should I be using one or the other for one setting or the other?
