For your reference
eDolby Digital is a digital sound compression technique developed
by Dolby Laboratories.
Supporting 5.1-channel surround sound, as well as stereo (2-chan-
nel) sound, this technique enables a large quanfity of sound data to
be efficlenfiy recorded on a disc.
eDTS Digital Surround is a 5.l-channel surround sound system,
which is widely used in movie theaters around the wodd. The sepa-
ration between channels is good and provides a very real surround
effect.
eLinear PCM is an uncornpressed digital audio signal. While a CD is
recorded in 44.1 kHz/16 bit, a DVD is recorded in 48 kHz/16 bit up
to 96 kHz/24 bit. Therefore, the sound reproduced with these sig-
nals is potentially better than that found on CDs. This player repro-
duces linear PCM in two channels.
eBitstream is a compressed digital audio signal. This signal can be
decoded into different channels to produce, for instance, 5.1-chan-
nel surround sound.
eThe digital audio output terminal (optical) converts electrical signals
into optical signals and transfers them to an amplifier, These opfical
signals are immune to electrical interference, and they also have
minimal effect on other equipment.

• Underlined items are factory preset.
1 If it is set to =Yes", the player converts linear PCM to 48 kHz even
during analogue output.
Do the following if you wish to take advantage of high quality
96 kHz sound.
Select "No" and connect this player's audio output terminal to an
amplifier's audio input terminal with the audio/video cable (in-
cluded) or an audio cable (not included).
_2When connecting an amplifier (with an optical or coaxial digital
input terminal) which does not contain a Dolby Digital or DTS
Digital Surround decoder, be sure to select "PCM" at "2 Dolby
Digital" and =PCM" (DVD-RV80) or "Off" (DVD-RV60) at "3 DTS
Digital Surround". If "Bitstream" is selected, any attempt to play
DVDs (or CDs encoded with DTS) may cause a high level of
noise that can injure your ears and damage your speakers.
