digital programs.
Optical Output
If you’ve connected a six-channel amplifier/receiver to the TV’s DIGITAL AUDIO
OUT jack with a digital optical cable (or a SPDIF cable), you can receive Dolby
Digital Surround Sound if transmitted. Choose the correct setting in the Optical
Output menu.
Off: Your TV isn’t connected to an amplifier or receiver.
Auto Select: Your TV automatically chooses between Dolby Digital and PCM based
on the audio signal it is receiving. This is the best selection if you have a Dolby
Digital

and PCM decoder that was manufactured in the last several years.
Dolby Digital: Your TV is connected to a Dolby Digital only decoder; it will
provide six independent soundtrack channels through the optical output jack
(labeled DIGITAL AUDIO OUT).
PCM: Your TV is connected to a PCM only decoder; it provides two independent
soundtrack channels.
Note: Some receivers can’t differentiate the audio signal through the optical
cable (SPDIF cable) when you change from DIRECTV mode to TV mode. If you
lose audio when you switch modes, connect left and right audio cables to the
AUDIO OUTPUT jacks on the back of the TV and to the Audio Input jacks on
the amplifier/receiver.
