Connecting To A Dolby Digital Decoder Or Dts Decoder - Sylvania DVL500A Owner's Manual

CONNECTING TO A DOLBY DIGITAL DECODER
If using this DVD player to play back a DVD in a 5.1 channel Dolby Digital surround or DTS surround format,
the DVD player outputs a Dolby Digital or DTS data stream from its COAXIAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jack. By
hooking the player up to a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder, you can enjoy a more convincing, realistic ambience
with powerful and high-quality surround sound of a professional standard such as can be heard in movie theaters.
Use audio coaxial digital cables (commercially available) for the audio connections.

Notes
Be sure to turn off the power to all components in the system before connecting another component.
Refer to the Owner's Manuals for the components to be connected to the DVD player.
If connected to a Dolby Digital decoder, set DOLBY DIGITAL to ON for audio output in the setup mode.
If connected to a DTS decoder, set DTS to ON for audio output in the setup mode.
Unless connected to a Dolby Digital decoder or a DTS decoder, set DOLBY DIGITAL and DTS to OFF for
audio output in the setup mode. Playing a DVD using incorrect settings may generate noise distortion, and may
also damage the speakers.
When DOLBY DIGITAL is set to OFF and VIRTUAL 3D to ON for audio output in the setup mode and you
select the audio source in a 5.1 channel Dolby Digital surround format, the audio will be muted.
