Here's a link to a sticky thread for more info.

From BigDaddy:

"Can PS3 Play DVD-A Music?
PS3 does not support DVD-A. As a co-developer of the competing format (SACD), Sony has never supported DVD-A."

Does this mean that with the availability of DTS-MA it can now? Not sure. I'd like to know if it does.

No it doesn't. The dts tracks on dts Entertainment's DVD's are included in the VIDEO_TS folder of the DVD, not the AUDIO_TS folder.

The dts Entertainment DVD's most often include a DVD-Audio high resolution mix, but it is in ADDITION to the dts mix that's also included.

Likewise most DVD-Audio discs contain video footage and Dolby surround mixes of the album in the VIDEO_TS folder for compatability with non-DVD-Audio players.

Any DVD-Audio disc will play in the PlayStation 3, you just can't get at the DVD-Audio portion of the disc.

Thanks for your input!

Well you can have it all, just set-up your optical connection for bitstream and your HDMI for LPCM.

Whenever you listen to a dts-CD or something you want to listen to bitstreamed dts with, change your receiver to the optical input. When your done, go back to the input set-up with HDMI.

Then you never have to change the PS3's menus.

As long as you have the right number of inputs on your receiver, you're golden.
