Setup

Dynamic Range Control

You can listen at low volumes, but still hear dialog

clearly.

This is only active if your player detects a Dolby

Digital signal.

Auto : The Dynamic Range Control will be set

automatically based on the information provided

by the Dolby TrueHD Soundtrack.

Off : You can enjoy the movie with the standard

Dynamic Range.

On : When Movie soundtracks are played at low

volume or through smaller speakers, the system

can apply appropriate compression to make

low-level content more intelligible and prevent

dramatic passages from getting too loud.

Downmixing Mode

Lets you select how the player will downmix multi-

channel audio into fewer channels.

Normal Stereo : Downmixes the multi-channel

audio into two channel stereo. Choose when

connected to equipment that does not support

virtual surround functions such as Dolby Pro

Logic.

Surround Compatible : Downmixes multi-

channel audio into surround compatible stereo.

Choose when connected to equipment that

supports virtual surround functions such as

Dolby Pro Logic.

NOTE

Be sure to select the correct Digital Output or you

will hear no sound or just loud noise.
If the HDMI device (AV receiver, TV) is not compatible

with compressed formats (Dolby digital, DTS), the

audio signal outputs as PCM.
Regular DVDs do not have BONUSVIEW audio and

Navigation Sound Effects.
Some Blu-ray Discs do not have BONUSVIEW audio

and Navigation Sound Effects.
This Digital Output setup does not effect the analog

(L/R) audio or HDMI audio output to your TV.

It effects the optical and HDMI audio output when

your player is connected to an AV receiver.
If you play MPEG audio soundtracks, the audio signal

outputs as PCM regardless of your Digital Output

selections (PCM or Bitstream).

PCM Downsampling

Lets you set 48kHz and 96kHz PCM down-

sampling on or off.

Off : Select when the AV receiver connected to

the player is 96kHz compatible.

On : Select when the AV receiver connected

to the player is not 96kHz compatible. 96kHz

signals will be down converted to 48kHz.

NOTE

Even when PCM Downsampling is set to Off, some

discs will only output downsampled audio through

the optical digital outputs.

HDMI

If your TV is not compatible with compressed

multi-channel formats (Dolby Digital, DTS), the

player may output PCM 2ch downmixed audio

even though you selected Bitstream (either Re-

encoded or Unprocessed) in the setup menu.

If your TV is not compatible with PCM sampling

rates over 48kHz, the player may output 48kHz

downsampled PCM audio even though you set

PCM Downsampling to Off.
