AUDIO
Each DVD disc has a variety of audio output options.
Set the player’s AUDIO options according to the type of
audio system you use.
Dolby Digital / DTS / MPEG
Bitstream: Select “Bitstream” if you connect the DVD
Player’s DIGITAL OUT jack to an amplifier or other
equipment with a Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG
decoder.
PCM : Select when connected to a two-channel digi-
tal stereo amplifier. DVDs encoded in Dolby Digital or
MPEG will be automatically downmixed to two-chan-
nel PCM audio.
Sample Freq. (Frequency)
If your receiver or amplifier is NOT capable of handling
96 kHz signals, select 48 kHz. When this choice is
made, this unit automatically converts any 96 kHz
signals to 48 kHz so your system can decode them.
If your receiver or amplifier is capable of handling 96
kHz signals, select 96 kHz. When this choice is made,
this unit passes each type of signal through without any
further processing.
Check the documentation for your amplifier to verify its
capabilities.
Dynamic Range Control (DRC)
With the DVD format, you can hear a program’s sound-
track in the most accurate and realistic presentation
possible, thanks to digital audio technology. However,
you may wish to compress the dynamic range of the
audio output (the difference between the loudest sounds
and the quietest ones). Then, you may listen to a movie
at a lower volume without losing dialog intelligibility. Set
DRC to On for this effect.
Notes
The DRC function works only during playback of
Dolby Digital recorded discs.
The level of Dynamic Range Compression may differ
depending on the DVD disc.
Vocal
Set Vocal to On only when a multi-channel Karaoke
DVD is playing. The karaoke channels on the disc will
mix into a normal stereo sound.
