Setting the Digital Audio Output to be Compatible with your AV Component

This player is capable of digital audio output for Dolby Digital, DTS, MPEG, and signals with a sampling rate of 96 kHz. Make settings in the Setup screen Audio 1 menu to reflect the capabilities of the components that you have made digital connections to.

Notes

•If you have already completed the Setup Navigator screen operations, the settings on this page have already been set by the player.

•If you have made only stereo line connections (analog) using the supplied audio cord, it is not necessary to make any changes in this menu.

Dolby Digital Out

This player is capable of outputting the Dolby Digital surround sound audio signal. When the player is connected to an AV component that has a built-in Dolby Digital decoder, select [Dolby Digital]. This player can also convert the Dolby Digital signal to a digital Linear PCM signal, the same digital signal output from a CD. Select [Dolby Digital 3 PCM] when you have made connections to an amplifier or receiver with a Dolby Pro Logic decoder or a Digital Analog Converter (DAC).

Note

If you have made digital audio connections to component(s) not equipped to decode the DTS digital bitstream, be sure to select [Off]. If a DTS signal is output without decoding, the output is digital noise that could potentially cause damage to your speakers.

Linear PCM Out

This player is capable of outputting digital signals with a sampling frequency of 96 kHz. If you have made connections to a component capable of processing this signal rate, select [Down Sample Off] for the signal to be output as is. As some components are incapable of processing digital signal input with sampling rates of 96 kHz, selecting [Down Sample On] compresses the signal to a standard signal with a sampling rate of 48 kHz. If [Digital Out] is set to [On] and [Linear PMC Out] is set to [Down Sample On], you’ll see the message “Digital Out Converted” appear on-screen when either the AUDIO button is pressed or when playing 192 kHz source materila.

Notes

•On DVDs that contain copy protection, the 96 kHz signal may only be output from the analog audio jacks. When this type of disc is encountered, even if [Down Sample Off] is selected, the player automatically outputs the digital audio signal at a compressed rate of 48 kHz or 44.1 kHz.

•Changes to the [Linear PCM Out] setting cannot be made when a disc is playing.
