Hi folks,

I have noticed that a few comments recently have suggested that surround (DD?) is available on a number of channels from the V+ box.

I have mine hooked up to my receiver using an HDMI cable (after setting HDMI override on the V+) I now get DD sound when watching HD content. However I do not get it on any other channels.

Does it really exist on other channels?
If so, which?
Does it require me to add a second dedicated (optical) for the DD sound?
If so - this is a bit of a faff! Isn't it?

Anyone got any definitive info - that they have verified themselves. Thanks!
