1. Secondary Audio
To set the Secondary Audio Program mixing option. Some
On – The Secondary Audio Program and menu clicking sound are mixed into the primary audio. Usually this will cause the primary audio volume to be slightly reduced. High resolution primary audio will be converted to a normal resolution in order to mix with the secondary audio.
Note: If Secondary Audio Program is set On and a SAP (or menu sound) is present as well as mixing these into the main audio the 650BD will output that audio over both HDMI and SPDIF/Toslink as DTS 5.1 ONLY.
No external decoding of DTS Master, Dolby Digital etc. soundtracks will be possible in this mode. All soundtracks will always be internally decoded, mixed and then
Once you have finished listening to a program with secondary audio always remember to turn this feature back off.
Off – The Secondary Audio Program and menu clicking sound are not mixed into the primary audio and you cannot hear the secondary audio or menu clicking sound. This setting preserves the highest possible audio quality for the primary audio.
2. HDMI Audio
To select digital audio output format from the HDMI output. The options are:
LPCM – Digital audio output via HDMI will be
Bitstream – Digital audio output via HDMI will be in bitstream format. This option is recommended when connecting the HDMI output to an A/V receiver or processor that supports advanced audio decoding of Dolby TrueHD and
Off – No digital audio output via HDMI.
Note: If you use HDMI to connect audio to an HDMI A/V receiver or audio processor, it is important that you choose 720p or higher HDMI output resolution when playing high resolution audio content
3. SACD Output
To select audio output format for SACD. The options are:
PCM – SACD Direct Stream Digital (DSD) data is decoded by the player and converted into
DSD – SACD DSD data is output over HDMI without any conversion. For decoding by an external AV receiver capable of receiving DSD (HDMI 1.2a or higher inputs are required and the receiver must actually include support for DSD as it is not a mandatory requirement of the HDMI spec).

4. Coaxial/Optical Output | ENGLISH |
| |
To set the output format for the coaxial/optical digital audio outputs. The |
|
options are: |
|
LPCM – Forces |
|
setting if your receiver/amplifier or DAC only supports stereo digital (PCM) |
|
audio. |
|
Bitstream – Passes audio as compressed bitstream format to the |
|
receiver/amplifier. Choose this setting if your receiver/amplifier is capable |
|
of decoding Dolby Digital and/or DTS etc. |
|
5. LPCM Rate Limit |
|
To set the maximum Linear PCM output frequency for the coaxial/optical |
|
digital output. This menu item is intended to ensure that the audio output |
|
is compatible with equipment that cannot support high sample rates. It |
|
sets an upper limit to decide whether the player shall |
|
The player does not |
|
are: |
|
48kHz – Supported by most equipment. Higher sample rate material will |
|
be downsampled to 48kHz. |
|
96kHz – Allows a higher sampling rate and frequency response. It can |
|
result in better audio quality. Ensure that the receiver/amplifier can |
|
support it. Higher sample rate material will be downsampled to 96kHz. |
|
192kHz – Allows the highest sampling rate and frequency response. It |
|
can result in the best audio quality. Ensure that the receiver/amplifier |
|
can support it. |
