And as a matter of fact, it will decode all 7.1 channels of Dolby TrueHD. This was confirmed by Roger Dressler of Dolby: a 7.1 TrueHD mix was made from some AIX Recordings to promote Dolby TrueHD at a trade show. There are some players on the market that only do 5.1 channels of Dolby TrueHD.
This capability isn't being used by the studios at this time for Dolby TrueHD (7.1 channels); however, there are some LPCM (which the PS3 handles) and DTS-HD Master Audio titles where 7.1 is being used and it would be nice if the PS3 got a firmware upgrade to handle this format. Many in the industry speculate that Sony is deliberately holding off on this so that other manufacturers can get DTS-HD Master Audio working in their stand-alone players. The cell processor in the PS3 certainly has the power to handle the decoding duties.
