Bitstreams of Dolby Digital and DTS multi-channel audio tracks can be sent over an HDMI connection. To configure your audio output preference for a particular Player, in the Installer Web Utility, select Components tab>Settings>Audio tab. Before KEAOS 3.7, only decoded two-channel Dolby Digital audio tracks were sent, and DTS audio tracks were not sent at all. Updating to KEAOS 3.7 does not change the behavior of existing Movie Players. You can enable this new feature in the Installer Web Utility. All Kaleidescape components manufactured using KEAOS 3.7 or later have this feature enabled by default.
