"Digital Audio PCM Down
Conversion" Setting
The player can output digital signal with maximum
sampling rate of 96 kHz from the digital audio output
connector. When a DVD disc recorded in high
sampling rate PCM is played, this setting makes it
possible to select whether the signal is converted into
48 kHz signal or 44.1 kHz/16-bit signal.
At the factory, the player has been set to "On" for AV
amplifiers incompatible with high sampling rate
digital signal connection. If the connected AV amplifier
is compatible with 96 kHz digital input, change the
setting to "Off".

accordingly.
"Off" : Select to skip down conversion. Select this
setting when the connected AV amplifier is

output after down sampling conversion.
