Just had a second (Samsung) TiVo box installed as main box. Older Cisco TiVo now in bedroom. New Sammy cannot output DD 5.1 from recordings. Cisco box could. Am aware of fix (set to PCM output) but isn't really a solution as PCM is 2 channels only. Using Panny home cinema system connected via optical link.
Is this a Cisco/Samsung problem? Should I insist on a Cisco replacement? Tried calling VM but gave up after 15 mins on hold.
