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. Both of these formats provide six separate channels: left, right, center, left rear, right rear, and common subwoofer.

Remember, the disc will only play 5.1-channel sound if you’ve connected a DTS or Dolby Digital receiver or decoder and if the disc was recorded in the Dolby Digital or DTS format.

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 setting in the DVD Player’s Setup menu, especially when you use the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack.

If you are connecting your DVD Player to a Dolby Digital receiver, choose the Dolby Digital setting in the Audio Equipment menu (within the Setup menu). If you’re connecting your DVD Player to a DTS receiver or decoder, choose the DTS setting in the Audio Equipment menu. For more information, see Audio Equipment menu information on p. 51.

Remove the Plastic Covers

If you’re using the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack, check to see if there is a protective cover inside of the jack and on the ends of the optical digital cable.You must remove these protective covers before inserting the optical digital cable into the jack.
