I popped my dvd of The Hunt for Red October tonight and to my dismay, it would only play in 3.2 DD. I put in T2 and tried both DD and DTS but still could not do any better than 3.2. It was the first time that I watched Red October but I am pretty sure when I watched T2 the first time, it was 5.1. I have a sony de-845 reciever with a sony s360 player running through an optical cable. Can anyone give me any help as to why I am stuck at 3.2?

3.2 or 3/2?

I think this is some idiotic Sony indicator that you are getting 5 channels: 3 front / 2 rear. Check your manual. Everything is probably fine. At any rate, there is no ".2" channel, so you must be reading it wrong.

Yep. If you press the Display button on the Sony DVD remote to see the bitstream info, this is what it shows - 3/2 for front/center/rear

I have a Sony 530D and it does the same thing. Confusing, but you are getting 5.1
