• 48kHz/96kHz PCM (DVD VIDEOs only)
Selects the sampling frequency of the audio
signal.
b Notes
• “48kHz/96kHz PCM” setting has no effect when
audio signals are output from the LINE 2 OUT
(R-AUDIO-L) jacks or LINE 1 – TV/LINE 3
jack. If the sampling frequency is 96 kHz, signals
are simply converted to analogue signals and
output.
• If the HDMI OUT jack is connected to equipment
not compatible with 96 kHz signals, 48 kHz PCM
will be automatically output even when you select
“96kHz/24bit.”
• Audio(HDMI)
Selects the type of audio signal output from
the HDMI OUT jack.
b Notes
• A loud noise (or no sound) will be output if you
connect the recorder to a TV that is not
compatible with DOLBY DIGITAL/DTS signals
and “Auto” is selected. In this case, select
“PCM.”
• Set “Digital Out” to “On” when outputting
compressed audio signals to an HDMI
compatible TV.

– LINE 3 jack
– DIGITAL OUT (COAXIAL)/HDMI OUT
jack only when “Dolby Digital” is set to “D-
PCM” (page 98).
Downmix (DVDs only)

channels when you play a DVD which has

affects the output of the following jacks:
– LINE 2 OUT R-AUDIO-L jacks
– LINE 1 – TV jack
– LINE 3 jack
– DIGITAL OUT (COAXIAL)/HDMI OUT
jack when “Dolby Digital” is set to “D-
PCM” (page 98).
