how good is the ps3's PIP blu-ray function ??

When the picture-in-picture turns on, the audio switches from 5.1 surround sound to mere two-channel stereo setup. Had the windows both included audio this would make sense, but the audio switches to 2.0 even if the material in the smaller window has no audio track at all. For instance, when the smaller window includes sketches alone, the receiver switches to two-channel audio and goes dead quiet. This may simply be a PlayStation 3 issue, as switching between LPCM and Bitstream made no difference, but we don't have the necessary Panasonic Blu-ray player (DMP-BD30) to test the performance of Profile 1.1 on another 1.1-equipped Blu-ray player. Ideally a non-PS3 Blu-ray player will enable switching audio streams, but since Resident Evil: Extinction is one of the first Profile 1.1 movies to release, we have a suspicion it was more of a Sony oversight than anything else.

never cared about it but i thoguht you might wanna know
