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 Recorder (MPEG 2,
Dolby Digital, and DTS). Check the receiver manual and the logos on the front of the receiver.
Connecting an Amplifier/Receiver
• Due to the DTS Licensing agreement, the digital output will be in DTS digital out when DTS audio stream is
selected.
• 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.
• 5.1 channel digital surround sound via the 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 on the on-screen display, press [AUDIO].
The DVD Recorder does not perform internal (2- channel) decoding of DTS sound tracks. To enjoy DTS multi-channel
surround, you must connect the DVD Recorder to a DTS compatible receiver via one of the DVD Recorder’s digital audio
outputs.
