Dolby Surround & DTS Neural:X "Upmixers" on New Denon X2800 in a 5.1 System

If a DTS/DTS-HD 2.0 96/24 disc is played, DTS Neural:X is not a selectable sound mode. A DTS 5.1/7.1/X 96/24 disc would also be locked out of the Neural:X sound mode. I'm not sure what is going on with those two discs exactly and I do not have them myself or a Denon receiver at the moment to try and replicate the issue. My Onkyo does not have a DTS 96/24 limitation and still has multiple sound modes for all DTS signals while most DTS modes have been dropped from newer Denon and Onkyo models for just DTS or DTS-HD with Denon having up mixer limitations for DTS 96/24 signals.

Well, when I played Christmas Vacation, with a 2.0 Master Audio track (stereo), the X2800 read "DTSHD + Neural:X" -- are you saying if this disc was sampled at 96/24 the upmixer DEFINITELY isn't being applied? Because when I played the film, the audio was placed properly for a stereo track -- dialogue was in the center and some ambient stuff was spread all around.

It's not a 96/24 disc but a DTS HD MA 2.0 48/24 disc. Press the info button on the remote controller. What is the Signal info? What is the Sound(mode) info? Which of the Signal channel boxes are lit up? The Sound(mode) is supposed to display DTS Neural:X for DTS HD MA 2.0 48/24 tracks but if it is displaying DTS-HD + Neural:X as if it was a multichannel track it is no big deal. The up mixer is working properly.
