allowing you to select the desired settings.

in question.
It can also be switched by the AUDIO button on the
remote control. The above display will then disappear.

Setting multiplexed or stereo

– Super VCD/Video CD/CD

Some types of discs are recorded in a multiplexed
system. Sometimes the DVD player is not able to
correctly identify the format, so it incorrectly selects the
stereo setting. In this case, you can use this item to
correct the setting. On an audio multiplexed disc, the left
channel carries the instrumental and the R channel
carries the instrumental and the vocals. On a stereo disc,
the left and right channels both carry the instrumental
and the vocals.
1Use the cursor button (2 3) to select “Disc”
in the Karaoke Setup menu.
2Use the cursor button (5 ∞) to select the

audio recording format: “STEREO” or “MPX”,

whichever applies to the disc in question.

Settings: STEREO
Settings: MPX
