Runco CX-57HD Stereo Sound/SAP CX-52HD only, Compatibility with Stereo and SAP Audio Broadcasts

Operation

The Crystal Series LCD supports Multichannel Television Sound (MTS), the broadcast audio standard that allows transmission of both stereo and Secondary Audio Program (SAP) content.

The SAP is usually a foreign-language translation. However, it can also be used for other purposes such as Described Video Services (DVS), which provide descriptive narration of key visual elements in programs for the benefit of the visually impaired.
