DTS Out, Linear PCM Out, Mpeg Out, Down Sample Off

■DTS Out

This player is capable of outputting DTS digital audio for DVDs recorded in DTS. If this player is connected to an AV component that has a built-in DTS decoder, select [DTS]. If your system is not equipped to decode DTS, select [DTS 3 PCM]. Refer to the operating instructions supplied with your audio components if you are unsure about compatibility with DTS.

Settings: DTS

DTS 3 PCM (Factory setting)

Note

If you have made digital audio connections to component(s) not equipped to decode the DTS digital bitstream, be sure to select [DTS

3PCM]. DTS signals are converted to Linear PCM signals then output. If a DTS signal is output without decoding, the output is digital noise that could potentially cause damage to your speakers.

■Linear PCM Out

If your AV amplifier (or other connected component) is compatible with high sampling rates (96 kHz), set this to [Down Sample Off], otherwise set it to [Down Sample On] (96 kHz audio is converted to a more compatible 48 kHz/ 44.1kHz). Check the manual that came with the other component if you’re unsure whether it is 96 kHz compatible.

Settings: Down Sample On (Factory setting )

Down Sample Off

Notes

•On DVDs that contain copy protection, the 96 kHz signal may only be output from the analog audio jacks.

•Even when set to [Down Sample Off], some discs will be down mixed to 48 kHz/44.1 kHz and not output digitally.

•High sampling rate DVD audio discs (192 kHz or 176.4 kHz) always output audio down sampled to 96 kHz or 88.2 kHz through digital outputs.

■MPEG Out

This player is capable of outputting the MPEG digital bitstream. If the player is connected to an AV component that has a built-in MPEG decoder, select the [MPEG] setting. Otherwise, select [MPEG 3 PCM] to convert the digital signal to the PCM signal, (the digital signal output from a CD).

Note

•DVD audio does not allow for downmixing. In this case, digital audio will not be output.

■Digital Out Expert

Depending on your preferences and the type of connections made, you may opt not to have the digital audio signal output at all. When this setting is set to [Off] there is no signal output from the digital audio output jacks.

Make changes to the [Digital Out] setting in the Setup screen Audio menu in the [Expert] menu mode (page 47).
