AC3/DTS Pass Trough
The S/PDIF digital outputs (both optical and RCA) normally supply the digital equivalent of the
signal present at the analog (front speakers or headphones) outputs. However, when this
button is selected, Dolby Digital (AC3) or DTS audio from DVD playback is passed through to
the optical and RCA S/PDIF outputs for external decoding, and all analog outputs are muted
including headphones. The Digital Out LED in the front panel of the Aurilium illuminates to
indicate this button has been selected. See Figures 1 and 2.
NOTE: For proper AC3/DTS pass-thru operation, additional configuration settings may be
required by the soft DVD player application used. Refer to the soft DVD player documentation
for detailed instructions.
NOTE: When the headphones are connected, the digital output mode is disabled. To enable the
digital output mode, disconnect the headphones. Also, when digital output mode is enabled,
headphones are muted.
