Some DVD players and recievers have to be set on what type of digital input/output. Coax digital output is normaly the default setting. You might have to change the setting in the amp so it is looking for a opitical to trigger the 5.1 mode. All else fails, try using a coax digital output and see if it detects the 5.1

make sure in the DVD player's menus DTS and DD are set to "Bittstream", not "PCM"
