Note
• Even if you set Audio Out to 5.1 Channel, you’ll
only get sound from all speakers when playing a
multi-channel DVD-Audio disc, or Dolby Digital,
DTS or MPEG encoded DVD disc.
• If you set to 2 Channel, Dolby Digital, DTS and
MPEG audio is mixed down to two channels so you
still hear all the audio recorded on the disc.
• Some DVD-Audio discs don’t allow down-mixing of
audio. These discs always output multi-channel
audio regardless of the setting made here.
