AUTO/PCM

Optimized for all discs playable on this

DOLBY DGTL

Select this mode when playing a disc
recorded in Dolby Digital Surround.

DTS

Select this mode when playing a DVD disc
recorded in DTS Surround.
The DTS decoder will be selected as the
internal decoder.

When to try changing the decode mode

When the decode mode is set to the default AUTO/PCM setting and
a DVD recorded in Dolby Digital Surround or DTS Digital Surround
is played, the internal decoder will be automatically selected before
audio playback begins. Depending on the disc, this may result in a
brief loss of audio after playback starts. This is due to lost audio
signals that were inputted during internal decoder selection.
In these instances, lost audio can be prevented by manually selecting
the decode mode appropriate for the disc you wish to play.
However, please note that when the decode mode is set to other
than AUTO/PCM, you will be unable to playback audio from discs
recorded in a mode other than the set mode.
After changing the decode mode and playing back a disc, return the
decode mode to “AUTO/PCM”.
Changing the playback source will automatically set the decode
mode to “AUTO/PCM”.
