[mythtv-users] Quick survey regarding passthrough device settings

[German Rodriguez]

I use the decoders on my receiver as those are faster and higher
quality, So I use the passthrough option all the time. I'd love for
this to work with the HD streams (DTS-HD, TrueHD), for now when I
really like a 7.1 track, I transcode it to FLAC.
