No AC3 through HD100 HDMI
Santa got me a new Yamaha AV receiver for Christmas so I figured I would finally switch all my connections over to HDMI. I set the video output to HDMI and it works fine. I set the audio to HDMI and I can only get 2 channel PCM. If I connect an optical cable and switch the audio to optical I get digital 5.1. What's up with that? I updated to the latest beta firmware (20081224) and it made no difference.

You dont have to use the latest beta, but set your audio to SPDIF, and you should get the expected results (weird I know)...
