AUDIO
Each DVD disc has a variety of audio output options.
Set this unit’s AUDIO options according to the type of
audio system you use.
Dolby Digital / DTS / MPEG
Bitstream: Select “Bitstream” if you connect the
DVD+VCR’s DIGITAL AUDIO 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-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 handling
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
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.
OTHERS
The PBC and Auto Play settings can be changed.
PBC
Set Playback Control (PBC) to On or Off.
On: Video CDs with PBC are played according to the
PBC.
Off: Video CDs with PBC are played the same way as
Audio CDs.
Auto Play
You can set up the DVD+VCR so a DVD disc
automatically starts playing whenever the DVD is
inserted.
If Auto Play mode is set to On, this DVD player will search
for title that has the longest playback time and then play
back the title automatically.
On: Auto Play function is active.
Off: Auto Play function is not active.
Note:
The Auto Play function may not work for some DVDs.
