"Digital Audio PCM Down
Conversion" Setting (DVD VIDEO
disc only)
The player can output digital signal with maximum
sampling rate of 96 kHz from the digital audio output
connector. When a DVD disc recorded in high sampling
rate PCM is played, this setting makes it possible to select
whether the signal is converted into 48 kHz signal or
44.1 kHz/16-bit signal.
At the factory, the player has been set to "On" for AV
amplifiers incompatible with high sampling rate digital
signal connection. If the connected AV amplifier is
compatible with 96 kHz digital input, change the setting
to "Off".
