`
Be sure to select the correct Digital Output or you will hear no sound or a loud noise.
`
If the HDMI device (Receiver, TV) is not compatible with compressed formats (Dolby digital, DTS), the audio
signal outputs as PCM.
`
Secondary and Effect audio will not be heard with regular DVDs.
`
Some Blu-ray Discs do not have Secondary and Effect audio.
`
This Digital Output setup does not effect the analog (L/R) audio or HDMI audio output to your TV. It effects
the optical and HDMI audio output when connected to a receiver.
`
When the player outputs HD audio bitstream(Dolby TrueHD or DTS-HD Master Audio) from the Optical jack to
an HDMI 1.3 receiver, only 2 channel PCM audio will be heard.
`
If you play MPEG audio soundtracks, audio signal outputs PCM regardless of Digital Output Selections(PCM
or Bitstream).
PcM Down Sampling
on : Select this when the Amplifier connected to the
~
player is not 96KHz compatible. 96KHz signals will be
down converted to 48KHz
off : Select this when the Amplifier connected to the
~
player is 96KHz compatible. Signals will be output without
any changes.

`
Even when PCM Down Sampling is set to Off, some discs will only output downsampled audio through the
optical digital outputs.
HDMI
If your TV is not compatible with compressed multi-channel formats (Dolby Digital, DTS), the unit may
~
output PCM 2ch downmixed audio even though you set Bitstream(either Re-encode or Audiophile)
on your setup menu.
If your TV is not compatible with PCM sampling rates over 48kHz, the unit may output 48kHz
~
downsampled PCM audio even though you set "PCM Down Sampling" to off.
Dynamic compression
This is only active when a Dolby Digital signal is detected.
on : When Movie soundtracks are played at low volume
~
or from smaller speakers, the system can apply
appropriate compression to make low-level content more
intelligible and prevent dramatic passages from getting
too loud.
off : You can enjoy the movie with the standard Dynamic
~
Range.
