Digital Multi-channel sound
A digital multi-channel connection provides the best sound
quality. For this you need a multi-channel Audio/Video
receiver that supports one or more of the audio formats
supported by your DVD Player (MPEG 2, Dolby Digital
TM
and DTS). Check the receiver manual and the logos on the
front of the receiver.
Warning:
Due to the DTS Licensing agreement, the digital
output will be in DTS digital out when DTS audio
stream is selected.
Notes:
If the audio format of the digital output does not match the
capabilities of your receiver, the receiver will produce a strong,
distorted sound or no sound at all.
Six Channel Digital Surround Sound via digital connection
can only be obtained if your receiver is equipped with a Digital
Multi-channel decoder.
To see the audio format of the current DVD in the On-
Screen Display, press the AUDIO button.
There are two sets of AUDIO OUT jacks on the DVD Player.
The AUDIO OUT2 jacks could be used if you want to connect
the DVD Player to a second piece of equipment, such as
another stereo. Use audio cable to connect the AUDIO OUT2
Right and Left jacks to the Right and Left AUDIO IN jacks on
the other equipment.
Remember, you only need one audio and one video connection
between the TV and the DVD Player, so you do not have to use
all the jacks on the DVD Player.
