HD 4000 only "multich" in display receiver not "DTS HD-MA"

I run a intel with a build in HD4000 chip. I use the hdmi to connect to my onkyo receiver, wich is dts hd-master compatible. In the driver (downloaded today from intel, i can setup the driver for use of 7.1 channels. If i play a movie, the receiver displays "Multich". When i use a blue ray player, it says "dts hd-master". The quality of the soud is great, so probably it is correct, but i would like the receiver to show "DTS HD-MASTER" in stead o f "multichannel".

How can i fix that? I think that i will have something to do with audio passtrough. But i can not choose passtrough in the driver.

pleas help me.

Based on your description I think the problem here is the receiver and not the HD graphics controller. The Blu-Ray player is recognizing the DTS which is supported by the Graphics controller.

I found something on the web similar to your problem that may be helpful for you:

Thanx Kevin. I read the article you directed me to. I understandl that you got my setup wrong. I used a blue ray player (sony) from my stereo set. That player workes fine, and displays hd-master. When i hook up mij computer, it workes fine with dts, it displays dts on the receiver, but if the movie is in hd-master the receiver uses multich. I would like the receiver to perform all of the decoding. And let the computer just handle the movie without decoding the sound. So i wanted te know if it is possible in any way to always let the receiver process the sound decoding. Something like a passtrough option.
