try selecting "automatic" settings for the easier and safest options.

How are you connecting your PS3 to your receiver? That's the first step.

Hi there, your right should have left a few more details. My PS3 is connected to the receiver via a Fiber Optic cable/Toslink and this is my receiver:

Also, what kind of speaker set-up do you have?

I have a 2.1 setup for now and I do PCM. With a toslink connection, you can get uncompressed PCM audio but only in 2 channel. Sounds great.

If you have a 5.1 system, unfortunately, you want be able to take advantage of any loseless audio with a toslink connection. But for 5.1 sound, use bitstream.

Plenty of threads on the net regarding this.

Check these options: DTS, DD, 88.1 kHz 2-channel PCM audio. Done.

Ditto bitstream, I have a 5.1 system, low end in value. Always had it on bitstream. Thx.

With optical connection, the only 5.1 sound you're going to get is by Dolby Digital and DTS. Enjoy your setup!
