You can only listen to DVD playback using OPTICAL

Connecting to an amplifier equipped with two channel analog stereo or Dolby Pro Logic II/Pro Logic

Connect the Left and Right AUDIO OUT (or DVD/ VCR AUDIO OUT) jacks on the DVD+VCR to the audio left and right in jacks on your amplifier, receiv- er, or stereo system using optional audio cables (A1, A2).

Connecting to an amplifier equipped with two channel digital stereo (PCM) or to an Audio/Video receiver equipped with a multi-channel decoder (Dolby Digital™, MPEG 2, or DTS)

1.Connect one of the DVD+VCR’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jacks (OPTICAL O, COAXIAL X) to the corresponding in jack on your amplifier. Use an optional digital (OPTICAL O, COAXIAL X) audio cable.

2.You will need to activate the DVD+VCR’s digital output. (See “AUDIO” on page 17.)

Digital Multi-channel sound

A digital multi-channel connection provides the best sound quality. For this you need a multi-chan- nel Audio/Video receiver that supports one or more of the audio formats supported by your DVD+VCR (MPEG 2, Dolby Digital and DTS). Check the receiv- er manual and the logos on the front of the receiver.

Caution:

Due to the DTS Licensing agreement, the digital output will be in DTS digital out when DTS audio stream is selected.

Notes:

•If the audio format of the digital output does not match the capabilities of your receiver, the receiver will produce a strong, distorted sound or no sound at all.

•Six Channel Digital Surround Sound via digital connection can only be obtained if your receiver is equipped with a Digital Multi-channel decoder.

•To see the audio format of the current DVD in the on-screen display, press A.MONITOR.
