MPEG Out
• Default setting: MPEG 3 PCM
You only need to make this setting if you connected
the player to another component (AV amplifier, etc.)
using one of the digital outs.
If your AV amplifier (or other connected compo-
nent) is compatible with MPEG audio, set this to
MPEG, otherwise set it to MPEG 3 PCM (MPEG
audio is converted to more compatible PCM
audio). Check the manual that came with the other
component if you’re unsure whether it is MPEG
audio compatible.

SACD Playback
• Default setting: 2ch Area
SACD discs can be divided up into several different
areas – stereo audio, 5.1 channel audio and, for
hybrid SACDs, standard CD audio. The SACD
Playback setting enables you to select which area
of the disc you want to play.

Note
If you select an area that isn’t on the disc loaded,
a different area of the disc will play. For example, if
you choose standard CD audio but the disc
loaded is not a hybrid SACD, the stereo SACD
audio will play.
Virtual Surround
• Default setting: Off
If you connected your DVD player using only the
stereo analog outputs and set Audio Out (see below)
to 2 Channel, you can simulate surround sound by
setting Virtual Surround to TruSurround.

Note
• There is no effect when the audio source is DVD-
Audio, DTS or 96 kHz LPCM or during CD, MP3 or
SACD playback.
• The digital audio output level is reduced when
playing 2 channel Dolby Digital DVDs or Video CDs
with TruSurround selected. If you play a multichan-
nel Dolby Digital DVD with Dolby Digital to PCM
conversion (see page 41) and TruSurround
selected, there is no digital output.
• How good the surround effect is varies with the
disc.
TruSurround
TruSurround uses technology that simulates
multichannel surround sound using only two
speakers.
