Hi All,
I'm looking for a new Nettop/HTPC with HDMI 1.3 so I can enjoy the sound in HD.
Tell me if I'm wrong but on the Apple TV they used HDMI 1.2 and based on the HDMI Version comparison found here only the version 1.3 and 1.4 support the Dolby TrueHD / DTS-HD Master Audio.
At the moment I can watch movies on 1080p/720p which is absolutely great but the sound is still not what I expect.
My config:
Apple TV (160Gb) with Broadcom Crystal HD Decoder
ONKYO TX-SR308
LG 37LD40
I was looking at the new Shuttle XS35GT and they clearly state "Digital HDMI v1.3 output" but for the other brands they usually don't bother telling the version used.
If you could point me in the right direction on this one that would be much appreciated
Cheers,
Nick
