PS3 to decode DTS-HD MA
« on: 10 Apr 2008, 10:46 pm »
So it seems to be official... on April 15th a new firmware update will allow internal decoding of all lossless tracks. Sure, they aren't bitstreamed, but this still make the PS3 a heck of a deal.

I wonder when or if they will ever develop firmware to enable bitstream  :scratch:

My understanding is the HDMI chipset used in the PS3 is incapable of sending bitstream. Unfortunately that is a hardware issue, so if true, a software update wouldn't fix it.
