may have one group with a stereo mix sampled at
192 kHz with a resolution of 24 bits, while a second
group may have a multi-channel (surround sound)
mix sampled at 96 kHz with a resolution of 24 bits.

Typically there are several different groups on a
DVD-A disc. Normally each group contains the
same number of tracks, each with the same musical
selections, although presented in various formats.
There may also be a menu group intended for
navigation when using a video display. These menu
groups are of little use with the Ayre C-5xe, as it
does not include any video circuitry.

However, some DVD-A discs are organized so that
multiple audio formats are stored as separate
soundtracks within a group. The “Audio” button on
the remote control handset will allow the desired
soundtrack to be selected.

When this type of DVD-A disc is playing, the first
press of the “Audio” button will enter the mode
whereby the soundtrack may be selected. The “

GUI

symbol will illuminate on the front panel display for
five seconds, and additional presses of the “Audio”
button during this period will scroll through the
available soundtracks.

In an additional level of complexity, the groups are
contained in a title set. Only DVD-Audio players can
access the Audio Title Set, but nearly all
DVD-Audio discs also contain a Video Title Set for
backwards compatibility with DVD-Video players.
The Ayre C-5xe

MP

will only access the Audio Title

Set, ignoring any content in the Video Title Set.
