Selecting stereo/SAP broadcasts

The multi-channel TV sound (MTS) feature allows you to output high-fidelity stereo sound. MTS also can transmit a second audio program (SAP) containing a second language, music, or other audio information (when provided by individual stations).

The MTS feature is not available when the TV is in VIDEO mode. When the TV receives a stereo or SAP broadcast, the word “STEREO” or “SAP” appears on-screen when RECALL is pressed.

Note:

•If you leave the TV in Stereo mode it will automatically output the type of sound being broadcast (stereo or monaural).

•If the stereo sound is noisy, select MONO to reduce the noise.

To listen to an alternate language on an ATSC digital station (if available):

Highlight the Language field in step 3 above, and then press x or • to select the language you prefer.

To listen to a second audio program on an analog station (if available):

Select SAP in step 3 above.

Note:

•A second audio program (SAP) can be heard only on TV stations that offer it. For example, a station might broadcast another language as a second audio program. If you have SAP on, you will see the current program on the screen but hear the other language instead of the program’s normal audio.

•If you have SAP on and the station you are watching is not broadcasting a second audio program, the station’s normal audio will be output. However, occasionally there is no sound at all in SAP mode. If this happens, set the MTS feature to Stereo mode.
