AUDIO
Each DVD disc has a variety of audio output options. Set the play-
er’s AUDIO options according to the type of audio system you use.
Dolby Digital / DTS / MPEG
Bitstream: Select “Bitstream” if you connect the unit’s DIGITAL
OUT jack to an amplifier or other equipment with a Dolby
Digital, DTS or MPEG decoder.
PCM (for Dolby Digital / MPEG): Select when connected to a
two-channel digital stereo amplifier. DVDs encoded in Dolby
Digital or MPEG will be automatically downmixed to two-chan-
nel PCM audio.
Off (for DTS): If you select “Off”, the DTS signal is not output
through the DIGITAL OUT jack.
Sample Freq. (Frequency)
If your receiver or amplifier is NOT capable of handling 96 kHz
signals, select 48 kHz. When this choice is made, this unit auto-
matically converts any 96 kHz signals to 48 kHz so your system
can decode them.
If your receiver or amplifier is capable of handling 96 kHz signals,
select 96 kHz. When this choice is made, this unit passes each
type of signal through without any further processing.
Check the documentation for your amplifier to verify its
capabilities.
DRC (Dynamic Range Control)
With the DVD format, you can hear a program’s soundtrack in the
most accurate and realistic presentation possible, thanks to digital
audio technology. However, you may wish to compress the
dynamic range of the audio output (the difference between the
loudest sounds and the quietest ones). This allows you to listen to
a movie at a lower volume without losing clarity of sound. Set
DRC to On for this effect.
Vocal
Set to On only when a multi-channel karaoke DVD is playing.
The karaoke channels on the disc mix into normal stereo sound.
