NOTES
(for
Method
2
only):
• When using an
AV
amplifier with a built
in
decoder (AV control center), Dolby Digital or DTS decoder as shown
in
the
Method
2,
set DOLBY DIGITAL or DTS to BITSTREAM accordingly for audio output
in
the setup mode (refer to page 30).
Set
it
to PCM or OFF for the decoder that
is
not used currently. Playing back a DVD using incorrect settings may generate
noise distortion, and may also damage the speakers.
• The audio source on a disc
in
a Dolby Digital Multi channel surround format cannot be recorded as digital sound by an MD
deck
or
OAT
deck.
• Set DOLBY DIGITAL to PCM and DTS to OFF for audio output
in
the setup mode for connecting to
an
MD deck or
OAT
deck
(refer to page 30).
• Harsh noise that could harm your ears or the speakers
is
generated when a DVD recorded
in
DTS
is
played while using a
decoder, etc., that
is
not DTS-compatible.
• When playing back a copyright-protected 96kHz PCM
DVD,
the digital sound will
be
down sampled at 48kHz, even
if
you set
LPCM SELECT
to
OFF (refer to page 30).
Optical cable (commercially available)
• Optical cable (commercially available) may be damaged
when
bent at sharp angles. Ensure cables are coiled
in
loops with
a diameter of 6 inches (15 cm)
or
more when storing them.
• Use a cable which is 9.8 feet (3m)
or
shorter.
• Insert cable plugs firmly into the connectors when making connections.
• If a plug has dust
or
is dirty, clean it with a soft cloth before inserting it into a connector.
