Digital Multi-channel sound

A digital multi-channel connection provides the best sound quality. For this you need a multi-channel Audio/Video receiver that supports one or more of the audio formats supported by your Recorder (MPEG 2, Dolby Digital and DTS). Check the receiver 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 connec- tion 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 AUDIO.

•This Recorder does not perform internal (2 channel) decoding of a DTS sound track. To enjoy DTS multi channel surround, you must connect this Recorder to a DTS compatible receiver via one of this Recorder’s digi- tal audio outputs.

•While viewing a digital channel, the 2 channel stereo audio is only output through the audio output jacks.
