is there any FAQ out there on the 'net that describes what all the various settings in the XMB are for?

Some older HDMI receivers can't handle the higher sampling rate of PCMs. It may not be apparent until you tried discs or multichannel SACDs and then you'll hear a distortion. If you get that, uncheck the highest sampling rate both in stereo and multichannel and then try the disc again. Repeat the process until you hear no distortion. The simplest method is to let the PS3 select automatically the sampling rate your receiver can handle via HDMI.

You don't want the PS3 to automatically decode DTS ES 6.1 Discrete and Dolby Digital EX audio because it'll fold it down to 5.1 instead of the full 6.1.

youre right, I didnt even bother asking what Receiver he's using...so many posts on Onkyo 605's I got lost in thought.
