DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT
Each DVD disc has a variety of audio output options. Set the player’s
Digital Audio Output according to the type of audio system you use.
DOLBY DIGITAL Bitstream/PCM: Select “DOLBY DIGITAL/PCM” if you
connected the DVD Player’s DIGITAL OUT jack to a Dolby Digital decoder
(or an amplifier or other equipment with a Dolby Digital decoder).
DTS Bitstream/Off: Select “Stream/Off: if you connected the DVD
Player’s DIGITAL OUT jack to an amplifier or other equipment with a DTS
decoder.
MPEG Bitstream/PCM: Select “Stream/PCM” if you connected the
DVD Player’s DIGITAL OUT jack to an amplifier or other equipment with
a MPEG decoder. Select when connected to a 2-channel digital stereo
amplifier. The DVD player outputs sounds in the PCM 2channel format
when you play a DVD video disc recorded on the Dolby Digital, MPEG1,
or MPEG2 recording system.
SAMPLE FREQUENCY
To change the Sample Frequency setting, first select the desired Digital
Audio Output as indicated as above.
If your receiver or amplifier is NOT capable of handling 96 KHz signals,
select 48 KHz. When this choice is made, this unit will automatically
convert 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 will pass each type of signal
through without any further processing.
DYNAMIC RANGE COMPRESSION (DRC)
With the DVD format, you can hear a program’s soundtrack 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.
