If you're having trouble getting surround sound playback look at this Frequently
Asked Questions (FAQ) guide:
Q1: Even though I'm playing a DVD I'm not getting 5.1 channel playback.
A1: Either the DVD is not set for digital output, or the Dolby Digital/DTS output settings are not
correct.
Set the DVD player to output a digital signal and set the Dolby Digital and DTS output properly. If you are
unsure how to do this check the DVD initial setup in the manual that came with your DVD player.
Q2: There is no sound from the subwoofer or it is very low.
A2: There is a good possibility you haven't reached a part of the DVD that has an LFE channel
(which feeds the subwoofer) yet. The LFE channel only appears in selected parts of the
soundtrack. Continue playing and listen for the subwoofer.
If you want to hear more sound from the subwoofer set it to PLUS (see page 37 for more information and
consult the memo on page 38).
