PCM via analog from PS3

[sokrman14]

You are right, it is possible, just not with a ps3 because it has no 5.1 analog outputs. The only way to achieve PCM 5.1 is through the HDMI on the ps3, but the 3806 doesnt accept HDMI 1.3, therefore you need a new receiver when the HDMI 1.3 receivers come out. Basically with your setup it can't be achieved unless you buy a stand alond bluray player such as samsung, sony, panasonic or pioneer.
