Nevertheless, 2nd gen Toshibas deliver lossless and 3rd-gen specifically support it

Posted by 4season on August 28, 2007 at 08:52:16:
Kind of an interesting roundabout way the 2nd-gen Toshibas do it; by transcoding to another lossless format before sending it to the receiver: It does suggest a satisfactory workaround for all those other players that can't be made to deliver TrueHD or HD Master Audio directly due to hardware limitations. The 3rd-gen Toshibas specifically mention TrueHD via HDMI but given the above, I don't know if I can make the case to buy a new HD-A35!
