• MPEG (DVD VIDEO only)

Selects the type of MPEG audio signal.

PCM

Select this when the recorder is

 

connected to an audio component

 

without a built-in MPEG decoder.

 

If you play MPEG audio sound

 

tracks, the recorder outputs stereo

 

signals via the DIGITAL OUT

 

(COAXIAL or OPTICAL) jack.

 

 

MPEG

Select this when the recorder is

 

connected to an audio component

 

with a built-in MPEG decoder.

 

 

bNote

If the HDMI OUT jack is connected to equipment not compatible with MPEG audio signals, the “PCM” signals will be automatically output even when you select “MPEG.”

• DTS (DVD VIDEO only)

bNote

When HDMI output is performed to equipment not compatible with DTS signals, the signals will not be output regardless of the “DTS” setting.

•48kHz/96kHz PCM (DVD VIDEO only) Selects the sampling frequency of the audio signal.

48kHz/

The DVD video audio signal is

16bit

converted to 48kHz/16bit and

 

output.

 

 

96kHz/

All signals containing 96kHz/24bit

24bit

are output without conversion.

 

However, the signals are output at

 

48kHz/16bit if copyright-

 

protected signals are contained.

 

 

bNotes

•“48kHz/96kHz PCM” setting has no effect when audio signals are output from the LINE 2 OUT (R-AUDIO- L) jacks. If the sampling frequency is 96kHz, signals are simply converted to 96kHz analog signals and output.

•When you use the DIGITAL OUT (COAXIAL or OPTICAL) jack to listen to MPEG audio signals and set “MPEG” to “MPEG” in “Audio” setup, no sound will come from your speakers if you select one of the TVS modes.

•If the HDMI OUT jack is connected to equipment not compatible with 96 kHz signals, 48 kHz PCM will be automatically output even when you select “96kHz/ 24bit.”
