during playback, when available.
Non-decoded high-definition audio to external device (HDMI 1.3 only): this
mode passes lossless audio through to your external decoder (AV receiver).

This section only applies to disc titles with Dolby Digital technology.
Select the Quiet Environment if you are in the mood to watch a movie without
distractions. All audible sound, from low frequency to high frequency audio
effects, will be highly distinctive and fall into the full dynamic range of Dolby
Digital.
If your listening environment is not completely adequate to enjoy the full
dynamic range of Dolby Digital, select the Normal Environment. Audible
effects that fall in the extreme ranges of Dolby Digital's audio spectrum will be
compressed.
