I use my computer to play Blu-ray discs. That is one of the reasons I am

James,
Ok...the computer complicates things. Also, since you have the motorola
receiver, and that is known to be flakey, things are doubly complicated. Did
you check in the menu system of your TV to see if it needs to be set to get
sound off the HDMI cable? If it works, you're only going to

Tools/Options then the 'Main' tab..
Then uncheck Show the Downloads window when downloading a file
I think that should do it.

That box was already unchecked but the right option was under the All in

Is HDMI ready for prime time?
Just a quick update on some of the things I have found out about HDMI audio.
First, the Yamaha receiver I purchased (and MANY others) does not utilize
the HDMI audio signal at all! It only passes it on to the HDTV.
There are also known issues with spdif ports and Bluray, specifically
getting any tru-hd or dts-hd decoded.
Spdif Is not considered a protected channel for drm and thus the pc
might end up downgrading the signal.

Isn't DRM just grand! It doesn't really protect the material, just makes it
difficult for us to use it, to enjoy what we pay for.
So how do you get tru-hd or dts-hd from a set top blu-ray player? The HDMI
receiver passes it on to the HDTV (which is stereo). Can't use the SPDIF
without it
Rip the Bluray to HD, re-encode the audio to FLAC and mux back into an mkv
file with the video and any subs you need. Works great.

Exactly, and that's why piracy is so widespread! People are tired of the
headaches and just want it to work. DRM isn't grand and they're making
people into pirates with it (along with their ridiculous greed of
course)! Take the Dark Knight for example: The movie studio's complain
about all the
:So how do you get tru-hd or dts-hd from a set top blu-ray player?
I get mine over HDMI. You can also get it over multi-channel analog if your
player has those and your receiver has the inputs.
I've done both and obviously HDMI is better since you get both video and sound
with one cable,
FLAC is a lossless codec and from my personal testing in my HT (your results
may vary) it sounded better than normal DD or DTS and almost as good as
Tru-HD.
The real bonus is that it drops the filesize by several hundred MB at least,
sometimes more.

I have ripped a few BDs to HD...they are currently hogging up about 220 GB.

You can generally just mkv the movie with the soundtrack you want and they
become very manageable.

Most of the followup posts address ripping the Blu-ray to the harddrive to
play. I was asking the question regarding a regular set top blu-ray player.
If my receiver just passes the HDMI audio signal along to the HDTV, how do I
connect the audio from the blu-ray player to the receiver?
