Setting the BD Audio Mode

BD-V

BD audio mode is to choose between two ways; you could output the secondary and interactive audio accompanied by the primary audio or you could output the primary audio only. Depending on the setting of the mode, Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, or DTS-HD output changes between Multi LPCM and bitstream.

1)In stop mode with BD inserted, press [MODE].

2)Use [U / V] to select desired setting.

“Mix Audio Output”

If it is available, BD video's secondary and interactive audio will be output with the primary audio.

•The secondary audio is the audio for the sub picture (Director's comment etc.) and the interactive audio is the audio for the interactive application (Button click sounds etc.).
