Setup

Dynamic Range Control

You can listen at low volumes, but still hear dialog
clearly.
This is only active if your player detects a Dolby
Digital signal.

Auto

: The Dynamic Range Control will be set

automatically based on the information provided
by the Dolby TrueHD Soundtrack.
Off

: You can enjoy the movie with the standard

Dynamic Range.
On

: When Movie soundtracks are played at low

volume or through smaller speakers, the system
can apply appropriate compression to make
low-level content more intelligible and prevent
dramatic passages from getting too loud.

Downmixing Mode

Lets you select how the player will downmix multi-
channel audio into fewer channels.

Normal Stereo

: Downmixes the multi-channel

audio into two channel stereo. Choose when
connected to equipment that does not support
virtual surround functions such as Dolby Pro
Logic.
Surround Compatible

: Downmixes multi-

channel audio into surround compatible stereo.
Choose when connected to equipment that
supports virtual surround functions such as
Dolby Pro Logic.

NOTE

Be sure to select the correct Digital Output or you

will hear no sound or just loud noise.

If the HDMI device (AV receiver, TV) is not compatible

with compressed formats (Dolby digital, DTS), the
audio signal outputs as PCM.

Regular DVDs do not have BONUSVIEW audio and

Navigation Sound Effects.

Some Blu-ray Discs do not have BONUSVIEW audio

and Navigation Sound Effects.

This Digital Output setup does not effect the analog

(L/R) audio or HDMI audio output to your TV.
It effects the optical and HDMI audio output when
your player is connected to a AV receiver.

If you play MPEG audio soundtracks,

the audio signal

outputs as PCM regardless of your Digital Output
selections (PCM or Bitstream).

PCM Downsampling

Lets you set 48kHz and 96kHz PCM down-
sampling on or off.

Off

:

Select when the AV receiver connected to

the player is 96kHz compatible.
On

:

Select when the AV receiver connected

to the player is not 96kHz compatible. 96kHz
signals will be down converted to 48kHz.

NOTE

Even when PCM Downsampling is set to

Off, some

discs will only output downsampled audio through
the optical digital outputs.

HDMI

If your TV is not compatible with compressed

multi-channel formats (Dolby Digital, DTS), the
player may output PCM 2ch downmixed audio
even though you selected Bitstream (either Re-
encoded or Unprocessed) in the setup menu.
If your TV is not compatible with PCM sampling

rates over 48kHz, the player may output 48kHz
downsampled PCM audio even though you set
PCM Downsampling to Off.
