Dolby Digital Question

[Mandarb]

Does my receiver have to have a built in decoder to get Dolby 5.1 from the XBox for games and movies or does the XBox decode the signal?

[Knight]

Yes it needs a built in decoder for DD5.1 or DD or DTS!!

Great links Knight. Thanks. I had never seen these before. If anyone hasn't read these and you're interested in the technology of the Xbox, you should definitely check them out.
