Wow, my friend, you ARE confused.
Let's get this straightened out for you, shall we?
DTS HD MA and TrueHD are containers. They're compressed versions of lossless LPCM tracks. When you "decode" them, you're decoding them to the lossless LPCM version for playback. Now you can do that either on the player or the AVR depending on your equipment's capability and how you have it all set up. To decode it on the AVR, you need to use HDMI set to bitstreaming mode. I don't prefer this for a variety of reasons. However, this will send the compressed DTS HD MA or TrueHD track to your AVR so it can decode it for playback. I prefer to let the player decode it and send LPCM to my AVR. Doing this allows me to utilize my analog connections. On my receiver, using the analog inputs bypasses ALL processing by the receiver, so, it plays straight up whatever it's sent on each channel. PowerDVD can decode DTS HD MA and TrueHD audio into LPCM. Ideally you'd want to send the decoded LPCM track to your receiver through HDMI, as well, but, since I don't have that option and PowerDVD doesn't yet support it anyway, I use analog. Make sense?
