If your Sound System supports Dolby Digital + then it will work although some TV's Netflix apps do seem to be able to pass the sound as PCM to Amps that don't support DD+

As a side note Apple/Netflix have screwed up 5.1DD at the moment so no 5.1 on Apple TV with latest update.

Not noticed that until I read your post, thanks for the heads up.

I did a few weeks ago, was watching Dusk til Dawn series and realised it wasn't in 5.1, then spent the next hour replaying things I was sure were in 5.1, nothing. Then found out a few days later over on AVi forums that there was a problem
