audio system you use.

DVD+VCR’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack to an
amplifier or other equipment with a Dolby Digital,
DTS or MPEG decoder.

-
nected to a two-channel digital stereo amplifier.
DVDs encoded in Dolby Digital or MPEG will be
automatically downmixed to two-channel PCM
audio.
Off (for DTS): If you select “Off”, the DTS signal is
not output through the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack.
Sample Freq. (Frequency)
If your receiver or amplifier is NOT capable of han-
dling 96 kHz signals, select 48 kHz. When this choice
is made, this unit automatically 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 pre
-
sentation 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 los
-
ing 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.
