AUDIO
Each DVD disc has a variety of audio output options. Set this unit’s AUDIO options according to the type of audio system you use.
Dolby Digital / DTS / MPEG
Bitstream: Select “Bitstream” if you connect the
DVD+VCR’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack to an amplifi­er or other equipment with a Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG decoder.
PCM (for Dolby Digital / MPEG): Select when con­nected to a two-channel digital stereo amplifier. DVDs encoded in Dolby Digital or MPEG will be automatically downmixed to two-channel PCM audio.
Off (for DTS): If you select “Off ”, the DTS signal is not output through the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack.
Sample Freq. (Frequency)
DVD
If your receiver or amplifier is NOT capable of handling 96 kHz signals, select 48 kHz.When this choice is made, this unit automatically converts any 96 kHz sig­nals to 48 kHz so your system can decode them.
If your receiver or amplifier is capable of handling 96 kHz signals, select 96 kHz.When this choice is made, this unit passes each type of signal through without any further processing. Check the documentation for your amplifier to verify its capabilities.
DRC (Dynamic Range Control)
With the DVD for mat, you can hear a program’s sound­track in the most accurate and realistic presentation possible, thanks to digital audio technology. However, you may wish to compress the dynamic range of the audio output (the difference between the loudest sounds and the quietest ones).This allows you to listen to a movie at a lower volume without losing clarity of sound. Set DRC to On for this effect.
Vocal
Set to On only when a multi-channel karaoke DVD is playing.The karaoke channels on the disc mix into nor­mal stereo sound.
