Each DVD disc has a variety of audio output options. Set
the player’s AUDIO options according to the type of
audio system you use.
Dolby Digital/ DTS/ MPEG
Bitstream: Select "Bit stream" if you connect the DVD
Player’s DIGITAL OUT jack to an amplifier or other
equipment with a Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG de-
coder.
PCM (for Dolby Digital/ MPEG): Select when con-
nected to a two-channel digital stereo amplifier.
DVDs encoded in Dolby Digital or MPEG will be auto-
matically down mixed to two-channel PCM audio.
Off (for DTS): If you select “Off'', the DTS signal is
not output through the DIGITAL OUT jack.
Sample Freq. (Frequency)
If you 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.
When the disc prohibits 96 kHz digital output, the signal
always is put out after down-conversion.
Dynamic Range Control (DRC)
With the DVD format, you can hear a program's
soundtrack in the most accurate and realistic presenta-
tion possible, thanks to digital audio technology. How-
ever, 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.
This function operates only at the time of playback of
DVDs recorded with Dolby Digital.
Vocal
Set to on only when a multi-channel karaoke DVD is
playing. The karaoke channels on the disc mix into nor-
mal stereo sound.
