First, the Satellite receiver must be capable of receiving Dolby Digital. It must have an optical digital connector to be able to extract the Dolby Digital signal.

What make and model satellite receiver are you using?

No, only some HBO, Starz, and Showtime are, other than some of the pay-per-views.
