Audio
Setup
Page
EQ:
Adjusts the final effect of the stereo output with a number of
optional presets.
Soundfield:
Adjusts the final effect of the decoder output with a number
of surround effects presets.
SPDIF
output:
Switches the digital audio section of the decoder/output
between bitstream (Raw) and uncompressed stereo digital out (PCM).
The bitstream (Raw) must be selected to enable surround sound (Dolby
digital/DTS) to be sent to an external decoder via the audio digital
output (coaxial or optical). If only a stereo speaker system is to be used
then it is only necessary to set this option to PCM, then only two
channels of information are decoded and sent to the stereo audio
outputs (and the coax/optical digital audio output).
LPCM
Out:
This sets the maximum data rate for the digital audio output
(not the actual data rate from source) for connection to an external
decoding amplifier. The internal decoder will downsample if the
recorded material has a higher audio data rate although it will not
upsample if the recorded material has a lower audio data rate.
Dolby
Digital
setup/Dynamic:
This allows the adjustment of the Dynamic
compression applied to the audio. This can be useful when listening to
action films (large dynamic range between talking and explosions) late
at night. When set to maximum this will force the quiet and loud parts
of the signal to a similar level.
Channel
Trim:
Allows adjustment of the decoder levels for each
individual channel in turn to optimise audio setup.
NNoottee::
When a film is playing it is not possible to access the setup menu unless the
stop button is pressed twice (clearing the film position altogether).
