Cary Audio Design DVD 8 owner manual PRO Logic, Dolby Digital Setup, Stereo default Stereo output

CHANGING THE DEFAULT SETTINGS

The DVD 8 will automatically set the digital to analog converter (DAC) sample rate to match the data rate of any CD, DVD-Audio or DVD disk it is playing (48, 96, 192 kHz) when you have the audio turned ON for the HDMI section. If you wish to control the sample rate manually you need to first set the HDMI audio to OFF. Then the LPCM setting will be highlighted and it will become adjustable for the analog outputs sample rate.

If you intend to use HDMI with the DVD movie soundtrack audio going along with the video to a display or surround sound processor then this LPCM setting will not be available.
