Bitstream: Select "Bitstream" if you connect the DVD Player's
DIGITAL OUT jack to an amplifier or other equipment with a
Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG decoder.

two-channel digital stereo amplifier. DVDs encoded in Dolby
Digital or MPEG will be automatically downmixed to two-chan-
nel PCM audio.
Off (for DTS): If you select "Off", the DTS signal is not output
through the DIGITAL OUT jack.
Sample Freq. (Frequency)
If your receiver or amplifier is NOT capable of handling 96 kHz sig-
nals, select 48 kHz. When this choice is made, this unit automati-
cally converts any 96 kHz signals to 48 kHz so your system can
decode them.
Bitstream
If your receiver or amplifier is capable of handling 96 kHz signals,
Bitstream
select 96 kHz. When this choice is made, this unit passes each
PCM
type of signal through without any further processing.

Dynamic Range Control (DRC)
Move
Select
With the DVD format, 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.
