Pass through to audio device

Some audio cards may incorrectly report several audio devices that support non-PCM audio input

(Dolby® Digital, DTS, etc.). For correct operation, you should specify the audio device you want to use.

• If only one audio device reports support for non-PCM audio, the audio device selection is greyed-out and displays the only choice.

• If no audio devices report support for non-PCM audio, only the Decode and down-mix to 2 channels is available.

Dolby Options Stereo

Play audio in 2-channel stereo.

Dolby® Pro Logic®

Play audio using Dolby Pro Logic.
