PCM Downsampling:

If you don’t have a surround sound receiver connected to the Blu-ray Disc™ player, you should leave the PCM downsampling to 48 kHz, and proceed to the next setup menu item.

If you have a surround sound receiver connected to the Blu- ray Disc™ player, and you have connected to the surround receiver via the Blu-ray Disc™ player’s HDMI output, this setting has no effect on the audio going to the HDMI output of the player. Leave the PCM downsampling to 48 kHz, and proceed to the next setup menu item.

NOTE: Incorrectly setting the digital audio output’s PCM sampling rate too high may result in unpredictable audio playback.

Digital Output:

•PCM Stereo — Sets the output to PCM Stereo if you have not an audio receiver connected to your Blu-ray Disc™ player or the audio receiver connected to Blu-ray Disc™ player is not a 5.1/7.1 channel receiver.

•Bitstream HD — Lets your player send Dolby TrueHD or DTS-HD MA bitstreams over HDMI (if your player is connected to a compatible HDMI audio receiver). If your player is not connected to a compatible HDMI receiver (for example, your player is connected directly to the TV, a compatible audio signal is automatically sent over the HDMI connection. With this setting, Blu-ray audio is limited to the soundtrack for the main movie (no PIP audio).

•Bitstream Legacy — Sends a DTS or Dolby Digital bitstream from the disc over the HDMI connection. Blu-ray audio is limited to the soundtrack for the main movie (no PIP audio).

•Bitstream Mixed — Sends a DTS or Dolby Digital bitstream over the HDMI or Coaxial connection. This mode is primarily intended for use when you want to hear both PIP audio and the movie audio.

•PCM 5.1 — Sends a PCM audio signal of up to 5.1 channels over the HDMI connection.

•PCM 7.1 — Sends a PCM audio signal of up to 7.1 channels over the HDMI connection.

Dynamic Range Control:

Dynamic Range Control means that you can allow the Blu- ray Disc™ player to make the loud parts of a movie’s audio track quieter than they would be in the theatre, without making the dialog of the actors any quieter.

This would be useful, for instance, when you want to watch a movie in the evening when others might be sleeping.

NOTE: This setup menu item has no effect unless you have selected “Bitstream Mixed” in the Blu-ray Disc™ player’s audio setup menu.

When Dynamic Range Control is set to Off, movie soundtracks are played with the standard dynamic range.

When movie soundtracks are played at low volume or from smaller speakers, you can set Dynamic Range Control to On. Your player applies appropriate compression to make low-level content more intelligible and prevent dramatic passages from getting too loud.

Selecting the “Auto” option turns on the Dynamic Range Control for all Blu-ray Disc™ movie soundtracks except Dolby TrueHD. If you have selected a Dolby TrueHD track on the Blu-ray Disc™ disc, the “auto” selection tells the Blu-ray Disc™ player to only turn on dynamic range control if information embedded in the Dolby TrueHD sound track tells it to do so.

Stereo Downmix:

Select whether to downmix the multi-channel audio into fewer channels.

•Auto — Downmixes the multi-channel audio into the specific stereo that the connected equipment
