Ratatouille, why DD 5.1 sounds better PCM 5.1?

Right now, this is the one exception. If Sony gets on the ball with internal DTSHD decoding, there will be 2 exceptions.

Not enough bandwidth for Dolby TrueHD. You will only get DD 5.1 core so leave it at bitstream.

yea thats what i was talking about, you only have change settings when the sound format is in trueHD or any other track that requier's decoding. but if the movie is in uncompressed pcm you wont have to change anything because their's nothing to decode, its raw data.
