Recommended Audio Format Options
Depending on your specific audio/video connection method, the audio format options of the OPPO Blu-ray
Disc Player may need to be adjusted to match your configuration. Please refer to the video and audio
connection methods described previously in this guide and the following audio setup guidelines.
Audio Connection Directly to TV
If the player is connected directly to the TV through HDMI (as described in “Method 1” on page 10), through
DVI and analog L/R audio cables (as described in “Method 2” on page 11), or through component video and
analog L/R audio cables (as described in “Method 3” on page 12), it is recommended that you use the
following audio format options:
o Secondary Audio: On
o HDMI Audio: LPCM
o SACD Output: PCM
o Coaxial Optical Output: (any – not in use)
o LPCM Rate Limit: (any – not in use)
Multi-Channel Digital Audio to Receiver through HDMI
If the player is connected to an A/V receiver or processor with HDMI inputs for high resolution multi-channel
digital audio, you are in luck! You are now equipped to send all current audio formats to your receiver in pure
digital form. This connection method will typically be as described in “Method 4” on page 13 of this guide.
To get the best possible audio via HDMI, you may need to set the following options on the player’s
audio format Setup Menu, depending on the capabilities of your HDMI-capable receiver:
• If your receiver supports HDMI v1.3 with decoding capability for high resolution lossless audio
formats such as Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio, please set these audio format
options:
o Secondary Audio: Off (or On if you need secondary audio)
o HDMI Audio: Bitstream
o SACD Output: PCM (or DSD if the receiver supports DSD over HDMI)
o Coaxial Optical Output: (any – not in use)
o LPCM Rate Limit: (any – not in use)
• If your receiver supports HDMI v1.1/1.2 Multi-Channel PCM audio, but not high resolution
lossless audio formats such as Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio, please set these
audio format options:
o Secondary Audio: Off (or On if you need secondary audio)
o HDMI Audio: LPCM
o SACD Output: PCM (or DSD if the receiver supports DSD over HDMI)
o Coaxial Optical Output: (any – not in use)
o LPCM Rate Limit: (any – not in use)
In this configuration you can enjoy all audio formats using the HDMI connection.
