Using the digital audio selector

You can use the Digital CC/Audio selector to conveniently switch between audio tracks on a digital channel (for those channels that have multiple audio tracks). This temporarily overrides the audio track chosen by the language option under Audio Setup (see “Selecting stereo/SAP broadcasts,” at right).

To use the digital audio selector:

1. Press MENU and open the Applications menu.

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.

To listen to stereo sound:

1.Press MENU and open the Audio menu.

2.Highlight Audio Setup and press ENTER.

Note:

¥You can leave the TV in Stereo mode because it automatically outputs 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.

Audio	CC 1
Closed Caption	Service 1

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 those 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 programÕs normal audio.

¥If you have SAP on and the station you are watching is not broadcasting a second audio program, the stationÕs 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.
