    AFAIK, with DTS and the Gen. 1, you'll only get pass-through to receiver, not downmix to stereo.

    That is correct.

    You will need to have a receiver which downmix, the WDTV can't downmix 'on-the-fly'.

    but ac3 5.1 is playing trought an analog output (stereo of course) so some type of downmix is build in. i am confused. somewhere is writen its possible, somewhere not :/

    Then the TV is just playing the channels it can play. It's DTS tracks that don't downmix, and some other track I can't remember.
