produce a surround sound effect from stereo speakers.
This function works only when connections are
made to the AUDIO OUT jacks.

pressed on the remote, “VDD” appears at the upper left of the
screen.
• When the Virtual Dolby Digital function is on during playback,
and “Dolby Digital 3 PCM” is selected in the [Dolby Digital

audio output from the digital output jacks.
