Audio Out Select
DVD
VCD
CD
The output sound format can be changed according to your
purpose and preference by changing the sound signal
conversion method.
The sound signal conversion method is selected from among
the three listed below. (Note that the three items are sound
signal conversion methods, not the sound signal format the
sound signals are converted into.)
When “Audio Out Select” is set to “Bitstream,” the sound is
output in the most suitable format automatically through the
speakers and output connector/jacks. Therefore, although
you can change the sound signal conversion method using
the menu, leaving the “Audio Out Select” setting to
“Bitstream” and changing the method according your
purpose temporarily as described on page 48 is
recommended.
For details (tips on using of this function, sampling frequency
and quantization bit conversion table, etc.), see pages 48
and 49.
