Digital Multi-channel sound

A digital multi-channel connection provides the best sound quality. For this you need a multi-channel Audio/Video receiver that supports one or more of the audio formats supported by your DVD Player (MPEG 2, Dolby DigitalTM and DTS). Check the receiver manual and the logos on the front of the receiver.

Warning:

Due to the DTS Licensing agreement, the digital output will be in DTS digital out when DTS audio stream is selected.

Notes:

–If the audio format of the digital output does not match the capabilities of your receiver, the receiver will produce a strong, distorted sound or no sound at all.

–Six Channel Digital Surround Sound via digital connection can only be obtained if your receiver is equipped with a Digital Multi-channel decoder.

–To see the audio format of the current DVD in the On- Screen Display, press the AUDIO button.

–There are two sets of AUDIO OUT jacks on the DVD Player. The AUDIO OUT2 jacks could be used if you want to connect the DVD Player to a second piece of equipment, such as another stereo. Use audio cable to connect the AUDIO OUT2 Right and Left jacks to the Right and Left AUDIO IN jacks on the other equipment.

Remember, you only need one audio and one video connection between the TV and the DVD Player, so you do not have to use all the jacks on the DVD Player.
