Default Please help me understand audio codecs...
Hi. I'm using an older receiver that has your typical Pro Logic, 5.1 Dolby Digital and 5.1 DTS audio codecs and plan to upgrade to a new receiver that will allow me add an additional two rear speakers for 7.1 surround sound. Am I correct in thinking that if my Blu-ray or standard upconverting DVD player will decode the newest audio formats (there are too many to list) and both are connected to the receiver via HDMI, then my receiver doesn't need to have the latest and greatest built in decoders to support the latest audio formats? Or will I need a receiver that has the ability to internally decode the latest audio codecs as well?
