SCART Output Setting
(European model only)
With this setting you can select the video format to be
used for the SCART AV CONNECTOR: RGB, S-Video,
or composite video. Before changing this setting, refer to
your TV’s manual to see if its SCART input can accept
video signals in these formats.
Composite (default):
Composite video offers stan-
dard quality.
S-Video:
S-Video offers the next best picture quality.
RGB:
This format offers the best picture quality.
Notes:
• If you select a format that is not supported by your TV,
the setup menu may disappear from the screen. If this
happens, switch off your equipment, connect the DVD
player to your TV with a composite video or S-Video
cable, and then change this setting.
• When RGB is selected, nothing is output by the com-
ponent video output and HDMI output.
Digital/HDMI Audio Out
With this setting you can configure the optical, coaxial,
and HDMI digital outputs.
All (default):
Dolby Digital and DTS signals are out-
put as they are.
PCM:
Dolby Digital and DTS signals are down
mixed to 2 channels and output as PCM.
Off:
No digital signals are output.
Note:
• MPEG is output as PCM regardless of this setting.
Linear PCM Out
With this setting you can configure the DVD player to
output digital audio with higher sampling rates (e.g.,
88.2 kHz, 96 kHz) as it is or to down sample it to 48 kHz
or below.
If the AV component you connect to the DVD player’s
digital audio outputs supports 96 kHz digital audio,
select Down Sample Off. Otherwise, select Down Sam-
ple On.
Down Sample On:
196 kHz and 96 kHz sources are
down sampled to 48 kHz, and 176.4 kHz and
88.2 kHz sources are down sampled to 44.1 kHz.
Down Sample Off (default):
Sources are output as
they are.
Notes:
• Some copy-protected DVD-Video discs may use
96 kHz digital audio only for D/A conversion to the
analog audio outputs.
•With some discs, even if you select Down Sample Off,
the digital audio will be down sampled, and in some
cases may not be output by the DVD player’s digital
audio outputs.

With these settings, you can specify which speakers are
connected and their sizes. These settings only apply to
the DVD player’s analog multichannel output. If you
connect to only the FRONT/D.MIX L/R jacks, set the

tings to Off.
