No, you have your PS3 set up incorrectly. There is nothing wrong with the movies. If your receiver should ONLY be receiving uncompressed PCM from the PS3. If you have the PS3 set up correclty, it decodes the 7.1 DTS-HD MA tracks (and Dolby TrueHD tracks for that matter) and sends them to the receiver in PCM. You have to manually set up the audio option in the PS3 audio settings.

Audio > HDMI > Manual > Uncheck anything except the PCM options > Save settings...

Something like that.
