Installation and Setup
[AUDIO] Menu
Each disc has a variety of audio output options. Set
the player’s Audio options according to the type of
audio system you use.
Note:
Since many factors affect the type of audio output,
see “The unit’s Audio Output Specifications” on page
36 for details.
HDMI / SPDIF (Digital Audio Output)
Select the output sound format when a device
equipped with an HDMI or Digital Audio input jack is
connected to the HDMI OUT or DIGITAL AUDIO
OUT jack on this player.
[PCM Stereo] – Select if you connect this unit’s
HDMI OUT or DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack to a
device with two-channel digital stereo decoder.
[PCM Multi-Ch] (HDMI only) – Select if you
connect this unit’s HDMI OUT jack to a device
with multi-channel digital decoder.
[DTS Re-Encode] – Select if you connect this
unit’s HDMI OUT or DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack to
a device with DTS decoder.
[Primary Pass-Thru] – Select if you connect this
unit’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT and HDMI OUT jack
to a device with LPCM, Dolby Digital and DTS.
Notes:
• When [HDMI] option is set to [PCM Multi-CH], the
audio may output as PCM Stereo if the PCM
Multi-Ch information is not detected from HDMI
device with EDID.
• When [HDMI] and [SPDIF] options are set to [DTS
Re-Reconde], the DTS audio will output on BD
and HD DVD advanced disc, and the original
audio will output on the other discs.
Sampling Freq. (Maximum Sampling Frequency)
[192kHz] – Select this if your A/V Receiver or
Amplifier is capable of handling 192 kHz signals.
[96kHz] – Select this if your A/V Receiver or
Amplifier is NOT capable of handling 192 kHz
signals. When this choice is made, this unit auto-
matically converts any 192 kHz signals to 96 kHz
so your system can decode them.
[48kHz] – Select this if your A/V Receiver or
Amplifier is NOT capable of handling 192 kHz
and 96 kHz signal. When this choice is made,
this unit automatically converts any 192 kHz and
96 kHz signals to 48 kHz so your system can
decode them.
Check the documentation for your A/V Receiver or
Amplifier to verify its capabilities.
DRC (Dynamic Range Control)
During the disc encoded in Dolby Digital or Dolby
Digital Plus is playing back, you may wish to com-
press the dynamic range of the audio output (the dif-
ference between the loudest sounds and the qui-
etest ones). This allows you to listen to a movie at a
lower volume without losing clarity of sound. Set
DRC to [On] for this effect.
