Audio Options

Some programs have alternate audio available (such as other language tracks or Dolby Digital). This option only appears in the Quick Menu over Live TV when the current program has alternate audio. You can set the default so that whenever a program has alternate audio available, it automatically plays this audio, or you can change the alternate audio temporarily for the program you are watching. In either case, press MENU while in Live TV, then:

To change the default audio, from the Quick Menu, select Settings, select Setup, then select Audio in the left menu and follow the onscreen instructions.

To temporarily change the audio, from the Quick Menu, select Audio Options, then select the audio track you prefer. Once the program is over or you change the channel, the audio will change back to the default setting.
