DVD-As (DVD-Audio discs)

The UDP-89 supports DVD-Audio discs recorded in accordance

to the recommendations of DVD Forum WG-4. DVD-A discs

store multi-channel audio up to 96 kHz, 24-bit, or stereo up

to 192 kHz, 24-bit using Meridian Lossless Packing (MLP)

compression.

DVD-A discs will normally offer a choice of disc areas, each

carrying the audio programme material encoded in a different

way. DVD-A discs are authored in a similar way to DVD-V discs,

with a Title Menu page requiring user input. (Disc navigation

for this type of disc is described in the next manual sub-section

“Playing discs with video content” on page 23.)

Although referred to as “audio” discs, DVD-A discs will frequently

include video material as well.

Note that DTS- or Dolby Digital-encoded programme on the disc

will be correctly decoded, and its presence confirmed by DTS or

Dolby D indications in the front panel display as shown above.

See “Stereo and multi-channel audio” on page 32

for more

information regarding multi-channel audio formats. As with other

types of DVD, the OSDs are entirely dependent on the authoring

process.

Each item, i.e., main high-resolution audio, alternate audio

formats, videos or extras, on a DVD-A disc is called a Group,

and each Group is divided into Tracks. Groups are displayed

on the top line of the front panel display as Gxx, and the track

number displayed as Txx on the bottom line as shown

The NEXT

and PREVIOUS buttons may be used to select

alternative tracks in the normal way; other tracks may also be

selected using the OSD tracklist and the Cursor and MARK/

ENTER keys.
