I thought on PS3 you can choose bitstream vs LPCM


Isn't bitstream sending uncompressed audio to the receiver to decode? Or does that not include lossless HD audio?

you can, but if you are using the fat one, you can ONLY go HD sounds with 2.0 LPCM with optical.

you can bitstream just not the lossless codecs, with that you have to let the ps3 decode it

when they released the ps3, the hardware for the HDMI to bitstream those codecs wasnt available yet so the fat ps3's never got it, but its in the slim now

Finally, I will buy a console, not computer LOL
good thing I waited and didn't buy some used fat ps3 on cragislist for $300

there aint that many good games you need to play in a 2 weeks time frame

ienhz 08-25-2009 01:59 PM

does it really take 2 weeks for BB to ship you a ps3 slim? i always thought their shipping time was around a week and usually under.

wouwou 08-25-2009 02:18 PM

^not really, but they send by Canadapost and the delivery guy doesn't always know on the door

wouwou 08-25-2009 03:39 PM
