DVD Operation Setup (Continued)

Sound

Digital Audio Output

Each DVD disc has a variety of audio output options.
Set the DVD+VCR’s Digital Audio Output according to
the type of audio system you use.
DOLBY DIGITAL/PCM: Select DOLBY DIGITAL/PCM if
you have connected the DVD+VCR’s DIGITAL AUDIO
OUT jack to a Dolby Digital decoder (or an amplifier or
other equipment with a Dolby Digital decoder).
Stream/PCM: Select Stream/PCM if you have
connected the DVD+VCR’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack
to an amplifier or other equipment with a DTS decoder,
Dolby Digital decoder or MPEG decoder.
PCM: Select when connected to a 2 channel digital
stereo amplifier. The DVD+VCR outputs sounds in the
PCM 2ch format when you play a DVD video disc
recorded with a Dolby Digital, MPEG1, or MPEG2
recording system.

Sample Frequency

To change the Sample Frequency setting, first select
the desired Digital Audio Output as indicated above.
If your receiver or amplifier is NOT capable of handling
96KHz signals, select 48KHz. When this choice is
made, this unit will automatically convert any 96KHz
signals to 48KHz so your system can decode them.
If your receiver or amplifier is capable of handling
96KHz signals, select 96KHz. When this choice is
made, this unit will pass each type of signal through
without any further processing.

Others

The DRC, Vocal and Auto Play settings can be
changed.

Use v/V to select the desired option and then press
ENTER repeatedly to select On or Off.

DRC (Dynamic Range Control)

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 clarity of sound. Set
DRC to On for this effect.

Vocal

Set Vocal to On only when a multi-channel karaoke
DVD is playing. The karaoke channels on the disc will
mix into normal stereo sound.

Auto Play

You can set up the DVD Player so a DVD disc automat-
ically starts playing whenever the DVD is inserted.
If Auto Play mode is set to On, this DVD player will
search for a title that has the longest playback time and
then play back the title automatically.

On: Auto Play function works.
Off: Auto Play function does not work.

ote

The Auto Play function may not work for some DVDs.
