xDOLBY DIGITAL (DVD VIDEO/DVD-

RW only)

Selects the Dolby Digital signals to be output via the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) jack.

D-PCM

Select this when the player is

 

connected to an audio component

 

lacking a built-in Dolby Digital

 

decoder. You can select whether

 

the signals conform to Dolby

 

Surround (Pro Logic) or not by

 

making adjustments to the

 

“DOWNMIX” item in “AUDIO

 

SETUP” (page 77).

 

 

DOLBY

Select this when the player is

DIGITAL

connected to an audio

 

component with a built-in Dolby

 

Digital decoder.

 

If the player is connected to an

 

audio component lacking a built-

 

in Dolby Digital decoder, do not

 

set this. Otherwise, when you

 

play the Dolby Digital sound

 

track, a loud noise (or no sound)

 

will come out from the speakers,

 

affecting your ears or causing the

 

speakers to be damaged.

 

 

xDTS (DVD VIDEO only)

Selects the DTS signals to be output via the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) jack.

D-PCM

Select this when the player is

 

connected to an audio

 

component lacking a built-in

 

DTS decoder. If you play DTS

 

audio sound tracks, the player

 

outputs stereo signals via the

 

DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL or

 

COAXIAL) jacks.

 

 

DTS

Select this when the player is

 

connected to an audio

 

component having a built-in

 

DTS decoder. If the player is

 

connected to an audio

 

component lacking a built-in

 

DTS decoder, do not set this.

 

Otherwise, when you play the

 

DTS sound track, a loud noise

 

(or no sound) will come out from

 

the speakers, affecting your ears

 

or causing the speakers to be

 

damaged.

 

 

x48kHz/96kHz PCM (DVD VIDEO only)

Selects the sampling frequency of the audio signal to be output via the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL or COAXIAL) jack.

48kHz/16bit The audio signals of DVD VIDEOs are always converted to 48kHz/16bit.

96kHz/24bit All types of signals including 96kHz/24bit are output in their original format. However, if the signal is encrypted for copyright protection purposes, the signal is only output as 48kHz/16bit.

If a receiver (amplifier) which cannot accept 96kHz is connected to the player, do not set this. Otherwise, a loud noise may come out from the speakers.

Notes

Even if you set “48kHz/96kHz PCM” in “AUDIO SETUP” to “96kHz/24bit,” the sampling frequency is converted to 48kHz/16bit when a “SURROUND” mode (page 55) is selected.

The analog audio signals from the LINE OUT L/R (AUDIO) 1/2 jacks are not affected by this setting and keep their original sampling frequency level.
