Audio Switching

Sound Multiplex (TV mode)

You can make optimum use of available audio by pressing bottom of remote control. Audio can be switched only if receiving sound multiplex signals; otherwise, pressing this button will have no effect, such as when only mono sound is received.

These can be divided into two main categories: Bilingual/Dual Sound broadcast and Stereo broadcast.

Bilingual/Dual Sound broadcast

Bilingual broadcast is the broadcast available on the main and sub languages, while dual sound broadcast is available on the primary and secondary sounds; for example, some sports programs contain broadcast commentary on a game as primary sound, and a commentary about a team as the secondary.

When bilingual program is received, sound mode display appears in yellow as shown. Each time button is pressed, the display is switched in the sequence of following.
