05 Setup
Dynamic Range Control
You can listen at low volumes, but still hear dialog
clearly.
This is only active if your player detects a Dolby
Digital signal.
Auto : The Dynamic Range Control will be set
automatically based on the information provided
by the Dolby TrueHD Soundtrack.
Off : You can enjoy the movie with the standard
Dynamic Range.
On : When Movie soundtracks are played at low
volume or through smaller speakers, the system
can apply appropriate compression to make
low-level content more intelligible and prevent
dramatic passages from getting too loud.
Downmixing Mode
Lets you select how the player will downmix multi-
channel audio into fewer channels.
Normal Stereo : Downmixes the multi-channel
audio into two channel stereo. Choose when
connected to equipment that does not support
virtual surround functions such as Dolby Pro
Logic.
Surround Compatible : Downmixes multi-
channel audio into surround compatible stereo.
Choose when connected to equipment that
supports virtual surround functions such as
Dolby Pro Logic.

NOTE
Be sure to select the correct Digital Output or you
will hear no sound or just loud noise.
If the HDMI device (AV receiver, TV) is not compatible
with compressed formats (Dolby digital, DTS), the
audio signal outputs as PCM.
Regular DVDs do not have BONUSVIEW audio and
Navigation Sound Effects.
Some Blu-ray Discs do not have BONUSVIEW audio
and Navigation Sound Effects.
This Digital Output setup does not effect the analog
(L/R) audio or HDMI audio output to your TV.
It effects the optical and HDMI audio output when
your player is connected to an AV receiver.
If you play MPEG audio soundtracks, the audio signal
outputs as PCM regardless of your Digital Output
selections (PCM or Bitstream).
PCM Downsampling
Lets you set 48kHz and 96kHz PCM down-
sampling on or off.
Off : Select when the AV receiver connected to
the player is 96kHz compatible.
On : Select when the AV receiver connected
to the player is not 96kHz compatible. 96kHz
signals will be down converted to 48kHz.
NOTE
Even when PCM Downsampling is set to Off, some
discs will only output downsampled audio through
the optical digital outputs.
HDMI
If your TV is not compatible with compressed
multi-channel formats (Dolby Digital, DTS), the
player may output PCM 2ch downmixed audio
even though you selected Bitstream (either Re-
encoded or Unprocessed) in the setup menu.
If your TV is not compatible with PCM sampling
rates over 48kHz, the player may output 48kHz
downsampled PCM audio even though you set
PCM Downsampling to Off.
