Configuring the DPC-7.4—Continued

Audio Menu

Digital Out

With these settings you can specify how the DPC-7.4 outputs digital audio signals. The options you choose will depend on the type of AV component that you connect to the DPC-7.4’s digital audio outputs.

Dolby Digital Out

DVD

With this setting you can configure the DPC-7.4 to output Dolby Digital audio as it is or downmix it to 2-channel PCM.

If you’re connecting the DPC-7.4’s digital audio outputs to an AV component with a built-in Dolby Digital decoder, select Dolby Digital. If you’re connecting to a hi-fi amp with a digital input, an AV receiver with a built-in Dolby Pro Logic decoder, or an external D/A converter, select Dolby Digital > PCM.

Dolby Digital (default): Dolby Digital audio is output as it is.

Dolby Digital > PCM: Dolby Digital audio is downmixed and output as 2-channel PCM digital audio.

Linear PCM Out

DVD

With this setting you can configure the DPC-7.4 to output digital audio with higher sampling rates (e.g., 96 kHz) as it is or downsample it to 48 kHz.

If the AV component you connect to the DPC-7.4’s digital audio outputs supports 96 kHz digital audio, select Down Sample Off. Otherwise, select Down Sample On.

Down Sample On (default): 96 kHz digital audio is downsampled and output at 48 kHz.

Down Sample Off: 96 kHz digital audio is output as it is.

Notes:

Digital Out

DVD VCD CD MP3 WMA

With this setting you can turn the coaxial and optical digital audio outputs on or off.

Depending on how you connect the DPC-7.4 to your other AV components, there may be situations where it’s helpful to be able to turn off the digital audio outputs.

On (default): Digital audio signals are output by the coaxial and optical digital audio outputs.

Off: Nothing is output by the coaxial and optical digital audio outputs.

Notes:

• This setting has no effect on the analog audio outputs.

Dynamic Range Control (Dolby Digital only)

DVD

With the Dynamic Range Control function you can reduce the dynamic range of Dolby Digital material so that you can still hear quiet parts even when listening at low volume lev- els—ideal for watching movies late at night when you don’t want to disturb anyone.

Off (default): The full dynamic range is preserved.

On: The dynamic range of Dolby Digital material is com- pressed.

Notes:

The impact of the Dynamic Range Control function depends on the Dolby Digital material that you are playing and with some material there will be little or no effect.

Language Menu

On-Screen Language

Some copy-protected DVD-Videos may use 96 kHz digital audio only for A/D conversion to the analog audio outputs.

With some discs, even if you select Down Sample Off, the digital audio will be downsampled to 48 kHz, and in some cases may not be output by the DPC-7.4’s digital audio outputs.

MPEG Out

DVD VCD

With this setting you can configure the DPC-7.4 to output MPEG digital audio as it is or downmix it to PCM.

If you’re connecting the DPC-7.4’s digital audio outputs to an AV component with a built-in MPEG decoder, select MPEG. Otherwise, select MPEG > PCM.

MPEG (default): MPEG digital audio is output as it is.

MPEG > PCM: MPEG digital audio is downmixed and output as PCM digital audio.

DVD VCD CD MP3 WMA JPEG
