^If this is set to “No”, no audio will be output when DVDs recorded in 96 kHz linear PCM are played. (Audio will be output as it is if the DVD does
not have copyright protection recorded on it.)
•These changes to digital audio output must be made, otherwise bitstream signals the decoder cannot handle will be output. If
these signals are output, “noise” will be output which can cause harm to your ears and speakers.
•You cannot use DTS Digital Surround decoders not suited to DVD.
