Hi guys, anyone know how to setup to get dolby digital or DTS sound from game. My connection is from laptop via HDMI to my yamaha receiver, but i only receive PCM sound which is like poop 5.1 instead of proper one.

Depends if the game support DD or DTS. You need to dig in the game setting.

What is wrong with PCM? It is as pure as it can be. Don't understand why you say poop 5.1. Are you not getting the correct sound being played back for the 6 speakers?

Pcm uncompressed but the dynamics all is off compared to dts or dolby. I having 5.1 system game sound much better on ps4 compared to use pc. So i wonder why pc don have such option.

if your AV receiver is receiving the audio as PCM it means the pc audio is already doing the decoding, instead it should send it as bitstream for the receiver to decode.
so it depends your 5.1 speakers output from sound card or avr? some software enforce PCM only not bitstream.
