For your reference:

Dolby Digital is a digital sound compression technique developed by the Dolby Laboratories Licensing Corporation. Supporting 5.1-channel surround sound, as well as stereo (2-channel) sound, this technique enables a large quantity of sound data to be efficiently recorded on a disc.

Linear PCM is a signal recording format used in CDs. While CDs are recorded in 44.1 kHz/16 bit, DVDs are recorded in 48 kHz/16 bit up to

96 kHz/24 bit.

If you have a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder, you will obtain the full benefit of Pro Logic from the same DVD movies that provide full 5.1 channel Dolby Digital soundtracks, as well as from titles with the Dolby Surround mark. For information on Panasonic or Technics Dolby Pro Logic Surround Sound Decoders please contact your local dealer.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Caution for optical digital audio output connector:

When connecting an amplifier (with an optical digital input connector) which does not contain the Dolby Digital or dts decoder, be sure to select “PCM” at “Dolby Digital” and “PCM” at “dts” in the Settings for DVD Operation “Selecting AUDIO OUTPUT” (see pages 64-65). Otherwise, any attempt to play DVDs may cause such a high level of noise that it may be harmful to your ears and damage your speakers.

Be sure to refer to pages 64-65 regarding output settings of Dolby Digital, dts, and PCM.

CDs can be played as usual.

Note

Some dts decoders which do not support DVD-dts Interface may not work properly with the unit.
