Xbox 360 Elite uses HDMI 1.2; no support for Dolby TrueHD

Apr 2nd 2007 8:46PM (Joystiq)
It is a shame that it cannot support PCM over HDMI, since it would place it just right there with the stand alone players.

One thing that you usually seek when you buy a piece of equipment or software is to get the most out of it, and with movies audio is a big part of the effect. With the current 640+ kbps DD or with the expected DTS @1.5 mbps you are still loosing on more than half the quality when the movie is encoded with True HD.

Sure enough, only those with HDMI receivers that accept will care. And for us that care there is the option of a stand alone player wich offers that quality via analog outs or HDMI. But then, why bother to place HDMI just as a bullet point? Just to have that bullet point removed when checked against the PS3 since the layman won't care?
