PC HDMI Audio w/ Radeon HD 4870

Downloaded Realtek's ATI HDMI Audio drivers and HDMI works silky smooth. PowerDVD is able to bitstream Dolby Digital and DTS to the Denon receiver.

Now the question is whether Windows Media Player is able to do the same, so I don't have to buy PowerDVD. But I do like the picture output by PowerDVD and the enhancement options it provides. I could go with the Standard edition for $50 and get all the functionalities I need.

Of course, I should look at other options as well. One of which is DVD X Player, which claims to be an all-region player. Worth a look.
