Audio Output, FZ range

[leekendr]

Im sure this topic has been discussed somewhere before, but i cant get the answer i want. I have a FZ21M with the built in blu-ray drive. I connect to my TV via HDMI and was wondering what kind of audio i can get through HDMI. I will soon be buying an AV receiver and so will be connected to that. I have various players on my laptop, WinDVD BD for Vaio, WinDVD 9 and PowerDVD 8.

Now im wondering, can i get dolby digital plus, dolby trueHD and LPCM through HDMI output?

I believe all audio output on the FZ-Series Vaio is restricted to 2-channel stereo only even through the HDMI connection.

In theory, the HDMI3 output should support 5:1 but it doesn't seem to work.

The FZ-Series does not have an optical SPDIF digital output either, so only 2:1 is possible.
