from the digital output jacks.

digital audio output formats are selected, and that

).

\ When the “VIRTUAL DOLBY DIGITAL” indicator

is lit during playback, there is no audio signal
output from the digital output jacks.

When recorded on a VCR or passed through an AV
selector, there is disturbance in the playback picture.

Due to the player’s copy protection circuits,
connection of this device through a VCR or an AV
selector may prevent recording or cause picture
problems.
\ This is not a malfunction.

Remote control operation is not possible.

The rear panel control input jack on the player is being
used.
\ Point the remote control at the component that

the player is connected to (page 20).

be possible to play back the audio at 96 kHz.
When this type of disc is encountered, even if [96
kHz]
is selected, the player automatically outputs
the audio at a compressed rate of 48 kHz. This is
not a malfunction.

\ The [4:3 (Letter Box)] screen setting is selected. Even

if [96 kHz] is selected, the player automatically
downsamples the audio to a compressed rate of 48
kHz. This is not a malfunction.

selected, the stereo channels are output from the
front right (R) and left (L) audio channels of the
