audio formats supported by your DVD Player (MPEG 2,
Dolby Digital and DTS). Check the receiver manual and
the logos on the front of the receiver.
Notes
– If the audio format of the digital output does not match
the capabilities of your receiver, the receiver will
produce a strong, distorted sound or no sound at all.
– Six Channel Digital Surround Sound can only be
obtained if your receiver is equipped with a Digital
Multi-channel surround sound decoder.
– To confirm the audio format of the current DVD
selection display, press AUDIO.
– Repeated pressing of the AUDIO button may allow
you to select between various audio formats available
on the disc.
Note
This player does not perform internal (2 channel)
decoding of a DTS sound track. To enjoy DTS
multi channel surround, you must connect this player to
