Still not really clear about this

Hi Joe

Thanks for the reply but I'm still a bit fuzzy about what is going on. The time shift recording here is mainly from satellite digital decoders and a little from free to air analog. I use s-VHS recorders, one of which has a hard drive in it.

Analog audio playback is from tape or hard drive -> Meridian 861 processor and there is no doubt about getting pro logic II. However the other night I'd swear the audio was 5.1 as the signals from the rear seemed to be distinctly different left to right rather that an amorphous surround as with PLII. Imagination? Maybe.

One of the decoders has a digital out but obviously can only be used for direct viewing. I'll check out the TV stations to see if they are transmitting 5.1 at all.

John
