Chapter 1: Setup and Connections

Connection: DVD + TV + Audio Receiver

Both Dolby Digital® and DTS® are audio formats used to record 5.1-channel audio signals onto the digital track of film (while the film is being made). Both of these formats provide up to six separate channels: left, right, center, left rear, right rear, and common subwoofer. The disc will play 5.1-channel sound only if you’ve connected a DTS or Dolby Digital receiver or decoder and if the disc is encoded in the Dolby Digital or DTS format.
