I cant get it to switch to 96khz by itself, I have to go back into the control panel (Sound - HDMI - Advanced) and change the 'Shared Mode' format to 96khz. Then I assume its playing the 96khz track to full potential.

I have my Yamaha set to 192khz/24bit and in Vista - Control Pannel - Sound-HDMI - Properties - Advanced - I have my default format set as 24bit, 192000 HZ (Studio Quality) and everything out of my HDMI into my receiver (when I read my signal information reads Format - PCM, Sampling 192khz, channels 3/4/0.1 blah blah blah I'm very pleased with the out come. Check in your Samsung menu and see if downsampling is selected - if it is, it will downsample 96khz to 48khz because your Onkyo is capable of 192khz/24bit.
How are you playing it through your PC? Which sound device are you using? Better yet give me your system specs

hey mate,

I did what you said; "Control Pannel - Sound-HDMI - Properties - Advanced - I have my default format set as 24bit, 192000 HZ (Studio Quality)"

Now when i play Queen or any blu-ray through my Laptop (DV5-1009tx), it comes up as 192khz when I press the display on the amp. I assume that it would play the 92khz track, even though it says 192khz, as its just allowing anything UPTO 192khz?

in my device manger, it just says 'NVIDIA HDMI Audio - Driver 1.0.0.23. Im a bit hesitant to update any driver, as one particular one just disabled the whole thing!

re-samsung, i wouldnt want to downsample on that, because as you say, the Onkyo is capable of playing upto 192khz too.

Your PC is actually upsampling if you hear no anomolies - you are doing it properly (some audio cards can't handle upsampling). It will upsample the 96khz track to 192khz. Your Device manger should read exactly what it says You're on your way my friend! Enjoy!
