Digital Interface for Panasonic D-VHS VCR
The digital interface on the STB allows the transfer high speed digital data between
devices. With the digital interface, there is no need to first convert digital data into
analog, eliminating the loss of data integrity. The digital interface on the STB allows
you to connect a Panasonic digital VHS (D-VHS) VCR only.
Digital VHS (D-VHS)
The D-VHS VCR records digital data directly onto tape without digital-to-analog
conversion. The recorded data from the tape then needs to be decoded for playback
through the STB. The STB provides everything necessary to use a Panasonic D-VHS
VCR. The digital interface allows the STB to control the D-VHS VCR and can even
turn it on and simultaneously start recording through the TIMER feature.
Dolby Digital (AC-3) Audio
Dolby Digital (AC-3) 5.1 channel surround sound delivers CD-quality sound. AC-3
provides five discrete full-bandwidth channels for front left, front right, center, surround
left and surround right, plus a LFE (Low Frequency Effect) subwoofer channel.
External Dolby Decoder (Optional)
For a full Home Theater sound experience, an external AC-3 decoder and
multichannel amplifier must be connected to the STB.
Stereo Output
The internal decoder converts compressed audio data, up to 5.1 channels, into two
CD-quality stereo audio outputs, delivering stereo sound.
Note: The stereo audio outputs are Dolby Surround compatible. You can connect a Dolby
Surround Pro Logic decoder (not included) to the stereo audio outputs and receive
surround sound.
