Audio Connection
The following setup items switch the method of
outputting audio signals when you connect a
component such as an amplifier (receiver) with a
digital input jack.
For connection details, see "Step 4: Connecting
the Audio Cords" on page 16.
Select "Dolby Digital," "MPEG," "DTS," and
"48kHz/96kHz PCM" after setting "Digital Out"
to "On."
If you connect a component that does not accept
the selected audio signal, a loud noise (or no
sound) will come out from the speakers, and may
affect your ears or cause speaker damage.

• Dolby Digital (HDD/DVDs only)
Selects the type of Dolby Digital signal.
D-PCM
Select this when the recorder is
connected to an audio component
lacking a built-in Dolby Digital
decoder. The surround effects of
output signals are determined by
the "Downmix" setting item in
"Audio" setup.
Dolby
Select this when the recorder is
Digital connected to an audio component
with a built-in Dolby Digital
decoder.
• MPEG (DVD VIDEO only)
Selects the type of MPEG audio signal.
PCM
Select this when the recorder is
connected to an audio component
without a built-in MPEG decoder.
If you play MPEG audio sound
tracks, the recorder outputs stereo
signals via the DIGITAL OUT
(COAXIAL or OPTICAL) jack.
MPEG
Select this when the recorder is
connected to an audio component
with a built-in MPEG decoder.
• DTS (DVD VIDEO only)
Selects whether or not to output DTS signals.
On
Select this when the recorder is
connected to an audio component
with a built-in DTS decoder.
Off Select this when the recorder is
connected to an audio component
without a built-in DTS decoder.
• 48kHz/96kHz PCM (DVD VIDEO only)
Selects the sampling frequency of the audio
signal.
48kHz/
The DVD video audio signal is
16bit converted to 48kHz/16bit and
output.
96kHz/ All signals containing 96kHz/
24bit
24bit are output without
conversion. However, the signals
are output at 48kHz/16bit if
copyright-protected signals are
contained.
b
Notes
• "48kHz/96kHz PCM" setting has no effect when audio
signals are output from the LINE 2 OUT (R-AUDIO-
L) jacks. If the sampling frequency is 96kHz, signals
are simply converted to 96kHz analog signals and
output.
• When you use the DIGITAL OUT (COAXIAL or
OPTICAL) jack to listen to MPEG audio signals and
set "MPEG" to "MPEG" in "Audio" setup, no sound
will come from your speakers if you select one of the
TVS modes.
