Notes:

Even when set to LPCM 96K some discs will only output at the lower rate of 48 kHz.

Default setting: Stereo

This option is for DVD-Videos which have separate audio tracks for the left and right channels.

To hear only the left channel, set to L-Mono.

On – Stereo tracks on a disc can be played as stereo or decoded to up to five channels (depending on the number of speakers in your system and the audio mode selected – see Surround Sound and Audio Modes chapter).

For other stereo sources (CDs and auxiliary digital or analogue stereo sources)

Off – Stereo sources will always be output as stereo.

On or Auto – Stereo sources can be played as stereo or decoded to up to five channels (if permitted by the audio stream and dependent on the number of speakers in your system and the audio mode selected – see Surround Sound and Audio Modes chapter).
