Dolby Digital – If your AV receiver, etc. is Dolby Digital compatible, set to Dolby Digital, otherwise set to Dolby Digital -> PCM.

96 kHz PCM – If your AV receiver, etc. is compatible with high sampling rate audio (88.2 / 96 kHz), set to 96kHz, otherwise set to 96kHz -> 48kHz.

DTS – If your AV receiver, etc. has a built-in DTS decoder, set to On, otherwise set to Off. (See also Important below.)

MPEG – If your AV receiver, etc. is MPEG audio compatible, set to MPEG, otherwise set to MPEG -> PCM.

Important

If you set DTS to On with a non-DTS compatible amplifier, noise will be output when you play a DTS disc.

When set to On, there is no analog audio output when playing a DTS DVD-Video disc.

When playing a DTS audio CD (even when DTS is Off), noise is output from the analog outputs. Do not play this through your amplifier and speakers.

When playing a DTS audio CD, make sure that Stereo is selected using the AUDIO button. See Switching DVD soundtracks on page 31.
