If your HDTV or projector doesn’t support the selected resolution, you may get no picture.

You can select a resolution suitable for use with your HDTV or projector on the DV-SP506 (see page 50).

■Audio Formats

The DV-SP506’s HDMI OUT supports the following audio formats:

•Multichannel PCM (192 kHz, 176.4 kHz, 96 kHz, 88.2 kHz, 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz)

•Dolby Digital

•DTS

•DSD

If your HDMI TV or projector doesn’t support Dolby Digital or DTS, the HDMI OUT will not output digital audio in those formats. In this case, set the Digital Audio Out setting to PCM (see page 51).

If your TV doesn’t support digital audio at higher sam- pling rates, set the Linear PCM Out setting to Down Sample On so that it’s down sampled to below 48 kHz (see page 52).

Choosing a Connection Method

To enjoy movies and music, you need to make video and audio connections from the DV-SP506 to your AV receiver or TV. The DV-SP506 supports various video and audio connection formats and can be connected in various ways. Use the chart below to help you choose the most suitable connection method for your system.

DV-SP506 settings can be changed by using the onscreen setup menus that appear on your TV’s screen. Even if you intend to only play music discs, we recommend that you connect the DV-SP506 to your TV so you can use these onscreen setup menus.

When you’ve completed all of the connections, you may need to change a few settings on the DV-SP506 to suit your other components or personal preferences (see page 30).
