Configuring the DVD player

Choosing standard settings
The DVD player provides four standard settings, called Types,
which configure the 598 into the most commonly needed
configurations.
Choosing one of the four Types overrides any other
configuration you may have performed, and so can be used to
reset the configuration of the unit.
Types 1 and 2 are for use with multi-channel 96kHz surround
processors; choose Type 1 if you have a Meridian 568.2 or 861, or
Type 2 if you have a non-Meridian processor. Types 0 and 3 are
for use with surround processors without a multi-channel input;
choose Type 0 if you have a system that does not support 96kHz,
or Type 3 if you have a Meridian 96kHz surround processor.
The following table gives full details of each Type:
Type Main output Aux output
0 PCM, 48kHz Bitstream
1 PCM, 96kHz, multi-channel, MHR Bitstream, MHR
2 PCM, 96kHz, multi-channel Bitstream
3 Bitstream, 96kHz, MHR Bitstream
All Types set the video output to S-video.
