HDPVR audio: optical vs. rca inputs
As I continue to hunt HDPVR gremlins - the RCA L/R audio inputs: those only decode/process two channel stereo, correct? If I want 5.1 audio from a satellite receiver or set top box, then the toslink optical is the only way, right?

Yes - the RCA inputs are stereo only - the only way for 5.1 sound recording (if on the source) is through the toslink optical cable.
