Thanks.

From their forum.

6. Does it do DD Plus, DTS-MA and Dolby True HD passthrough to HDMI and optical?
- Again, the capabilities exist, but the limitation is due to licensing. Apparently the media big-wigs want to control how one enjoys their movies and will not allow the media tech industry to enable the technology. Time will tell - perhaps things will change soon...

MVIX support

TS audio support ... LPCM, MPEG-AUDIO, AC3, Dolby Digital Plus, HE-AAC, LC-AAC, DTS, TrueHD

Looks nice but, I wouldn't buy a product called an "mede83r".

I prefer to have the support and experience MVIX provides.

The MVIX Ultio isn't a very attractive box at all. Actually, to put it plainly, it is damn ugly.

The mede8er is an awesome box and from what I've heard so far, 2 thumbs up! I'm going to be playing with one next week and so would cast my critical eye on it. Gonna be fun.
