Pioneer DV-S733A DVD Setup Menu, MPEG Out, Digital Out, SACD Playback, Virtual Surround

7 DVD Setup Menu

MPEG Out

• Default setting: MPEG 3 PCM

You only need to make this setting if you connected the player to another component (AV amplifier, etc.) using one of the digital outs.

If your AV amplifier (or other connected component) is compatible with MPEG audio, set this to MPEG, otherwise set it to MPEG 3 PCM (MPEG audio is converted to more compatible PCM audio). Check the manual that came with the other component if you’re unsure whether it is MPEG audio compatible.

Digital Out

• Default setting: On

If at any time you need to switch off the digital audio output, set this to Off, otherwise leave it On. Note that you can’t switch on/off the optical and coaxial outputs individually.

SACD Playback

• Default setting: 2ch Area

SACD discs can be divided up into several different areas – stereo audio, 5.1 channel audio and, for hybrid SACDs, standard CD audio. The SACD Playback setting enables you to select which area of the disc you want to play.

	Audio1	A2	Video1	V2	Language	General
			Audio DRC		— Off
		Dolby Digital Out			— Dolby Digital
			DTS Out		— DTS 3PCM
		Linear PCM Out			— Down Sample On
			MPEG Out		2ch Area
			Digital Out		Multi-ch Area
		SACD Playback			CD Area
42		Move				SETUP Exit

Note

If you select an area that isn’t on the disc loaded, a different area of the disc will play. For example, if you choose standard CD audio but the disc loaded is not a hybrid SACD, the stereo SACD audio will play.

Virtual Surround

• Default setting: Off

If you connected your DVD player using only the stereo analog outputs and set Audio Out (see below) to 2 Channel, you can simulate surround sound by setting Virtual Surround to TruSurround.

A1	Audio2	Video1	V2	Language	General
	Virtual Surround			Off
		Legato PRO		TruSurround

Note

•There is no effect when the audio source is DVD- Audio, DTS or 96 kHz LPCM or during CD, MP3 or SACD playback.

•The digital audio output level is reduced when playing 2 channel Dolby Digital DVDs or Video CDs with TruSurround selected. If you play a multichannel Dolby Digital DVD with Dolby Digital to PCM conversion (see page 41) and TruSurround selected, there is no digital output.

•How good the surround effect is varies with the disc.

TruSurround

TruSurround uses technology that simulates multichannel surround sound using only two speakers.
