If the player is outputting Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG bitstream audio (in other words, no conversion to PCM), Virtual Surround has no effect on the audio from the digital output. See Digital Audio Out settings on page 34 for how to set up the digital output formats.

How good the surround effect is varies with the disc.

Dialog

Settings: High, Medium, Low, Off (default)
