used then it is only necessary to set this option to PCM, then only two channels of information are decoded and sent to the stereo audio outputs (and the coax/optical digital audio output).

LPCM Out: This sets the maximum data rate for the digital audio output (not the actual data rate) for connection to an external decoding amplifier. The internal decoder will downsample if the recorded material has a higher audio data rate although it will not upsample if the recorded material has a lower audio data rate.

Pro-LogicII: When switched on DPL2 allows a surround effect from a suitably encoded stereo source. This menu allows full adjustment of the DPL2 settings. This allows the stereo audio output to be set to mono (generated from either the left, the right or a mix of both channels).

Dolby Digital setup/Dynamic: This allows the adjustment of the Dynamic compression applied to the audio. This can be useful when listening to action films (large dynamic range between talking and explosions) late at night. When set to maximum this will force the quiet and loud parts of the signal to a similar level.

Channel Trim: Allows adjustment of the decoder levels for each individual channel in turn to optimise audio setup.

Video Setup Page

The various settings on this screen are all concerned with fine tuning your DVD picture. You can adjust settings here whilst leaving the television settings as they are.

Preference Page

TV Type: the DVD player can be set for either a European PAL television or an NTSC unit. Alternatively AUTO will allow the DVD to adjust automatically, following the TV format of the DVD disc.

Audio Setting: Setting a particular language here will mean the DVD will automatically look for that language on any DVD inserted into the machine.

Subtitle: Setting a particular language here means that the DVD will look for this particular language. Setting it to the same as the Audio setting will cancel the subtitles out.

Disc Menu: This allows adjustment of the Scene selection/Special features menu where permissible by the disc.

Parental: Adjusting this blocks films above a set classification level (ie PG13) from playing on the player if children are using it, if you wish.

Password: This is how to alter the above settings. The password default is 7890 and can be changed by correctly entering the default followed by your new password.

Default: This can restore all of the original factory settings if required.

Note: When a film is playing it is not possible to access the setup menu unless the stop button is pressed twice (clearing the film position altogether).
