DVD Setup Menu

Audio Out

Default setting: 2 Channel (Stereo)

If you connected this player to your amplifier using the 5.1 channel analog outputs (front, surround, center and subwoofer outs), set this to 5.1 Channel; if you connected only the stereo outputs, set to 2 Channel (Stereo).

• 2 Channel (Lt/Rt)

Used to specify that DTS multi-channel input or Dolby Digital multi-channel input is to be downmixed into a format compatible with the Dolby Surround matrix format. This option may be selected to enjoy surround sound when the player is connected to Dolby Surround- compatible AV amplifier.

• TruSurround

If you connected your DVD player using only the stereo analog outputs, you can simulate surround sound.

Note

Works with DVD-Video and VCD only.

The digital audio output is processed by TruSurround when playing 2 channel Dolby Digital DVDs or Video CDs with TruSurround. It is recommended that Audio Out is set to 2 channel (stereo or Lt/Rt) when connecting the player to your amp using a coaxial or optical connection.

How good the surround effect is varies with the disc.

When TruSurround is selected, the audio can be output only for the L/R channels on the Front.

SRS TruSurround

SRS TruSurround uses technology that simulates multichannel surround sound using only two speakers.

Note

Even if you set Audio Out to 5.1 Channel, you’ll only get sound from all speakers when playing a multi-channel DVD-Audio disc, multi- channel Super Audio CD disc, Dolby Digital or DTS encoded DVD disc.

Set Digital Out (page 39) to Bitstream for Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1 channel analog output.

Set Digital Out (page 39) to Off for DVD Audio 192/176.4/96/88.2 kHz Hi Sampling and 5.1 channel analog output.

When you set it to 5.1 Channel, the overall output level may sound quieter than when set to 2 Channel (Stereo, Lt/Rt) or TruSurround.

If you set to 2 Channel (Stereo), 2 Channel (Lt/Rt), TruSurround, Dolby Digital and DTS are mixed down to two channels so you still hear all the audio recorded on the disc.

Some DVD-Audio discs don’t allow down- mixing of audio. These discs always output multi-channel audio regardless of the setting made here.

Change can be made only in the stop mode. When RESUME is indicated on the display, put the player in the STOP mode by pressing 7 (STOP) button.
