HDMI Audio is automatically down-mixed to 2ch for TV speakers.

Audio Return Channel

You can enjoy TV sound from the Home Theater speakers by using just one HDMI cable.

•Auto : Listen to TV sound from the Home Theater speakers if your TV is compatible with the Audio Return Channel function.

•Off : Turn the Audio Return Channel function off.

✎NOTE

When Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC) is Off, the Audio Return Channel function is not available.

Using an ARC (Audio Return Channel) uncertified HDMI cable may cause a problem in compatibility.

ARC function is only available if an ARC- compliant TV is connected.

Digital Output

You can set the Digital Output to match the capabilities of the AV receiver you’ve connected to the product :

•PCM : Choose if you have connected an HDMI supported AV receiver.

•Bitstream (Unprocessed) : Select if you have connected an HDMI supported AV receiver with Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio decoding capabilities.

•Bitstream (Re-encoded DTS) : Choose if you have connected an AV receiver using a Digital Optical input that can decode DTS.

•Bitstream (Re-encoded Dolby D) : Select if you don’t have an HDMI supported AV receiver, but have an AV receiver with Dolby Digital decoding capabilities.

For more details, please refer to the digital output selection table. (See page 37)

Blu-ray Discs may include three audio streams :

-Main Feature Audio : The audio soundtrack of the main feature.

-BONUSVIEW audio : An additional soundtrack such as the director or actor’s commentary.

-Navigation Sound Effects : When you choose some menu navigation, Navigation Sound Effects may sound. Navigation Sound Effects are different on each Blu-ray Disc.

✎NOTE

Digital Output can be activated when HDMI Audio is ON.

Be sure to select the correct Digital Output or you will hear no sound or just loud noise.

If the HDMI device (AV receiver, TV) is not compatible with compressed formats (Dolby digital, DTS), the audio signal outputs as PCM.

Regular DVDs do not have BONUSVIEW audio and Navigation Sound Effects.

Some Blu-ray Discs do not have BONUSVIEW audio and Navigation Sound Effects.

This Digital Output setup does not effect the analog (L/R) audio or HDMI audio output to your TV.

It effects the optical and HDMI audio output when your product is connected to an AV receiver.

If you play MPEG audio soundtracks, the audio signal outputs as PCM regardless of your Digital Output selections (PCM or Bitstream).
