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.
