Your DVD player

will always deliver a high-quality 2-channel (stereo) signal to the audio output, regardless of whether the soundtracks on DVD movies are in 2-channel stereo, in Dolby Surround, in Dolby Digital (AC-3) or in MPEG2 audio multichannel. In some cases the soundtracks may be single channel (mono) only, then the output will also be mono only.

In order to benefit from the full digital 5-channel surround sound (Dolby Digital or MPEG2 audio) you need an external appropriate decoder, which has to be hooked up to the special optical or coaxial audio digital output (page 36/37).
