Before Operation (Continued)
AUDIO
Each DVD disc has a variety of audio output options.
Set the VCR/DVD Recorder’s Audio Output according to
the type of audio system you use.
Dolby Digital
PCM: Select when connected to a 2-channel digital stereo
amplifier. The VCR/DVD Recorder’s digital audio outputs
sounds in the PCM 2ch format when you play a DVD video
disc recorded on the Dolby Digital recording system.
Bitstream: Select when connected to a Dolby Digital
decoder (or an amplifier or other equipment with a
Dolby Digital decoder).
DTS
OFF: The DTS signal will not be output from the DIGI-
TAL AUDIO OUT jack.
Bitstream: Select when connected to a DTS decoder
(or an amplifier or other equipment with a DTS
decoder).
MPEG
PCM: Select when connected to a 2-channel digital
stereo amplifier. The VCR/DVD Recorder’s digital audio
outputs sounds in the PCM 2ch format when you play a
DVD video disc recorded on the MPEG1, or MPEG2
recording system.
Bitstream: Select when connected to an MPEG decoder
(or an amplifier or other equipment with an MPEG
decoder).
Sampling Freq. (Frequency)
If your receiver or amplifier is NOT capable of handling
96 kHz signals, select 48 kHz. When this choice is
made, this VCR/DVD Recorder will automatically con-
vert any 96 kHz signals to 48 kHz so your system can
decode them.
If your receiver or amplifier is capable of handling
96 kHz signals, select 96 kHz. When this choice is
made, this unit will pass each type of signal through
without any further processing.
DRC (Dynamic Range Control)
With the DVD format, you can hear a program’s sound-
track in the most accurate and realistic presentation
possible, thanks to digital audio technology. However,
you may wish to compress the dynamic range of the
audio output (the difference between the loudest sounds
and the quietest ones). Then, you may listen to a movie
at a lower volume without losing clarity of sound. Set
DRC to ON for this effect.
Vocal
Set Vocal to ON only when a multi-channel karaoke
DVD is playing. The karaoke channels on the disc will
mix into normal stereo sound.
