Hallo Twonky Users,
is there anybody out there who is able to stream MPEG2 video (VOB) with AC3 (Dolby Digital) audio on PS3?
I'd like to buy a PS3 but this issue is a killer for my buying decision.

Simple answer yes.

Thanks for your short and definete

answer.
Just to be sure: The AC3 (Dolby Digital) audio track is also forwarded via optical digital out to the Dolby Digial receiver. The reason I insist on this topic is that I read somewhere that the PS3 plays AC3 but only sends Stereo to the Dolby Digital receiver.

The older firmware wouldn't play 5.1 audio from the XBM but now it does.
