Customizing the Function Settings
29
■ DIGITAL OUT
OFF BITSTREAM PCM
Selects whether the digital output of the VD-4500 will
output the PCM signal only, the PCM and other signals,
or no digital signals, at all.
■ D. RANGE
ON OFF
When the setting is [ON], soft sounds such as dialog can
be heard more clearly without making loud sounds even
louder.
When the setting is set to [OFF], there is no effect on the
audio source.
Notes
• Dynamic Range is only effective with Dolby Digital
audio sources.
•The level may differ depending on the DVD.
•The effect depends on your speakers and AV amplifier
settings.
■ DOWN SAMPLE
ON (48 k) OFF (96 k)
If your AV amplifier (or other connected component) is
compatible with high sampling rates (96 kHz), set this to
[OFF(96K)], otherwise set it to [ON(48K)] (96 kHz audio is
converted to a more compatible 48 kHz). Check the
manual that came with the other component if you are
unsure whether it is 96 kHz compatible.
Note
•On DVDs that contain copy protection, the 96 kHz
signal may only be output from the analog audio jacks.
•The DTS 96/24kHz source will be enforced to be output in 48
kHz.
■ TV DISPLAY
• NORMAL/PS (Pan Scan)
Select when a 4:3 TV is connected. Displays pictures
cropped to fill your TV screen. Either or both sides of
the picture are cut off. This function is only available
when using a disc that supports Pan Scan.
• NORMAL/LB (Letter Box)
Select when a 4:3 TV is connected. Displays wide
screen images with masking bars above and below the
picture.
• WIDE
Select when a 16:9 wide TV is connected.
Notes
•The displayable picture size is preset on each DVD
video. Therefore, the playback picture of some DVD
videos may not conform to the picture size you select.
•When you play a DVD video recorded in the 4:3
picture size only, the playback picture always appears
in the 4:3 picture size regardless of the TV shape
setting.
•If you select [WIDE] and you own a 4:3 TV set, the
DVD playback picture will be horizontally distorted
during playback. Images will appear to be horizontally
compressed. Make sure the TV shape conforms to the
actual TV in use.
