Srrndhound, Thanks for your commentary. Yes, I think it is the right approach to socialize feature/functions on forum threads to see if it is a technique issue or an actual problem. Once we know we have an actual problem posting in the Issue Tracker gives all of us that central repository. Good stuff you are doing. Thanks. The dust seems to have settled, so it seems a handful of issues I described are not totally cockpit error on my part. But now that the first firmware update has already been finished, I may have missed that boat. Maybe some of these issues were already fixed?

When I play a multichannel SACD the on screen mode popup indicates Dolby PL2z, but when I look in the mode menu it says PL2x. I don't want the z option, which is for height channels. I wonder why the discrepancy in labeling? Bug? It only displays one or the other, not both. Odd.

^ You can't have both unless you have a 9.1 or 9.2 system. PLIIz supports both rear and height channels, but the algorithms for deriving those channels are different. So if if you have only a 7.1 system you have to tell the UMC-200 which setup to use, height or back, in the Speaker Setup menu. If you've selected "Height," the Mode menu will show PLIIz as an option. If you've selected "Back," it will show PLIIx.
Looks like the popup menu may be using "PLIIz" to mean either.

I have it set as back, but it reads z on the popup. X in set up. I think it is a display error. Could be quite confusing. It was to me.

Mentioned that earlier melm [and thought the dsp had problems ]; hopefully the fix is in the new firmware sticksnstones issue tracker mention is something that is a good reference for this type of thing .
