Dolby Digital® and DTS®

Both Dolby Digital and DTS are audio formats used to record 5.1-channel audio signals onto the digital track of film (while the film is being made). Both of these formats provide up to six separate channels: left, right, center, left rear, right rear, and common subwoofer.

The disc will play 5.1-channel sound only if you’ve connected a DTS or Dolby Digital receiver or decoder and if the original movie the disc was recorded from was encoded in the Dolby Digital or DTS format.

Please Read this Before Using the OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT Jack!

This TV/VCR/DVD’s digital output jack is designed for a connection to a Dolby Digital or DTS receiver or decoder. There are two types of Digital Out jacks on this unit: optical and coaxial. Use the jack (and the corresponding cable) that matches the type of Digital Audio In jack your receiver or decoder has.

Older digital equipment may not be compatible with the Dolby Digital bitstream. Such a connection can create a high level of noise that may be harmful to your ears, and could damage headphones or speakers.

It is important to choose the correct digital output setting in the TV/VCR/DVD’s audio menu, especially when you use the OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT jack (Chapter 5 has details).
