NOTES

It is not possible to set up at the same time “PCM Multi-Ch” or “Primary Pass-Thru” setting for “HDMI” option and “DTS Re-Encode” setting for “SPDIF” option. If the “HDMI” option is set to “PCM Multi-Ch” or “Primary Pass-Thru”, the “SPDIF” option is set automatically to “PCM Stereo”. Conversely, if “SPDIF” option is set to “DTS Re-Encode”, the “HDMI” option is set automatically to “PCM Stereo”.

If the T 557 plays back a disc of Dolby Digital Plus or Dolby TrueHD audio format and “HDMI” option set to “PCM Multi-Ch” and “SPDIF” option set to “Primary Pass-Thru”, SPDIF output is limited to “PCM 2ch” only.

If the T 557 plays back a disc of Dolby Digital Plus or Dolby TrueHD audio format, HDMI connection is 1.3 version and audio output is taken from HDMI OUT port with both HDMI and SPDIF connected simultaneously, SPDIF output is limited to “PCM 2ch” only.

The audio output format for MP3/WMA playback is PCM 48kHz/16 bit and PCM 44.1kHz/16 bit for Audio CD.
