Setting the Digital Audio Output To Be Compatible with Your AV Component

This player is capable of digital audio output for Dolby Digital, DTS, MPEG, and signals with a sampling rate of 96 kHz. Make settings in the Setup screen Audio 1 menu to reflect the capabilities of the components that you have made digital connections to.

Notes

•If you have already completed the Setup Navigator screen operations, the settings on this page have already been set by the player.

•If you have made only stereo line connections (analog) using the supplied audio cord, it is not necessary to make any changes in this menu.

Dolby Digital Out

This player is capable of outputting the Dolby Digital surround sound audio signal. When the player is connected to an AV component that has a built-in Dolby Digital decoder, select “Dolby Digital”. This player can also convert the Dolby Digital signal to a digital Linear PCM signal, the same digital signal output from a CD. Select “Dolby Digital 3 PCM” when you have made connections to an amplifier or receiver with a Dolby Pro Logic decoder or a Digital Analog Converter (DAC).

Note

If you have made digital audio connections to component(s) not equipped to decode the DTS digital bitstream, be sure to select [Off]. If a DTS signal is output without decoding, the output is digital noise that could potentially cause damage to your speakers.

96 kHz PCM Out

This player is capable of outputting digital signals with a sampling frequency of 96 kHz. If you have made connections to a component capable of processing this signal rate, select [96 kHz] for the signal to be output as is. As some components are incapable of processing digital signal input with sampling rates of 96 kHz, selecting [96 kHz 3 48 kHz] compresses the signal to a standard signal with a sampling rate of 48 kHz.
