Hi naks,

sorry, i've totally forgotten your issue :oops: as i didn't subscribed to it...

Add this renderer into your renderer folder:
CambridgeAudio-CXR200.conf
(675 Bytes) Downloaded 396 times
Untick all except "Keep DTS" and "Keep AC3" in your transcoding audio sub tab, and all should be fine.

P.S. I'm not an PS3 user at all, so i'm not familiar with the PS3 specifications and configuration. That's said PS3 is very limited, so better to stream directly to your Cambridge renderer to get the most of it.
This renderer configuration file is just an easy fix adaptation from the one already existing, so, far to be optimized but at least that should work for many files having DTS... ;)

Thanks Sami, but I realise now I forgot to ask how to stream directly to the CA?

I don't think it can play movies directly...

Now, you'll be able to listen music directly.

As you saw, your Cambridge have a video input and output, that mean that it will pass the video stream to your TV.

Thanks, listening to music was never an issue, even DTS wav files.

But I tried to stream the movie directly, but it apparently doesn't do video streaming, only audio

Cambridge Audio AVR Audio/Video receiver. But i think that the passthrough is possible only via HDMI on Cambridge Audio renderers.

I'm afraid that Cambridge manual and forum will be more usefull to you than i can be on that matter...
