Setting the Digital Audio
Output to be Compatible with
your AV Component
– DVD
This player is capable of digital audio output for Dolby
Digital, DTS, MPEG, and signals with a sampling rate of
96 kHz. Make settings in the Setup screen Audio 1
menu to reflect the capabilities of the components that
you have made digital connections to.
Notes
• If you have already completed the Setup Navigator screen
operations, the settings on this page have already been set
by the player.
• If you have made only stereo line connections (analog)
using the supplied audio cord, it is not necessary to make
any changes in this menu.
Dolby Digital Out
This player is capable of outputting the Dolby Digital
surround sound audio signal. When the player is
connected to an AV component that has a built-in Dolby
Digital decoder, select [Dolby Digital]. This player can
also convert the Dolby Digital signal to a digital Linear
PCM signal, the same digital signal output from a CD.
Select [Dolby Digital
3 PCM] when you have made
connections to an amplifier or receiver with a Dolby Pro
Logic decoder or a Digital Analog Converter (DAC).
DTS Out
This player is capable of outputting DTS digital audio for
DVDs recorded in DTS. When this player is connected to
an AV component that has a built-in DTS decoder, select
[DTS]. If your system is not equipped to decode DTS,
select [Off]. Refer to the operating instructions supplied
with your audio components if you are unsure about
compatibility with DTS.

Note
If you have made digital audio connections to component(s)
not equipped to decode the DTS digital bitstream, be sure to
select [Off]. If a DTS signal is output without decoding, the
output is digital noise that could potentially cause damage to
your speakers.

Linear PCM Out
This player is capable of outputting digital signals with a
sampling frequency of 96 kHz. If you have made
connections to a component capable of processing this
signal rate, select [Down Sample Off] for the signal to
be output as is. As some components are incapable of
processing digital signal input with sampling rates of 96
kHz, selecting [Down Sample On] compresses the
signal to a standard signal with a sampling rate of 48 kHz.
If [Digital Out] is set to [On] and [Linear PMC Out] is set
to [Down Sample On], you’ll see the message “Digital
Out Converted” appear on-screen when either the AUDIO
button is pressed or when playing 192 kHz source materila.
Notes
• On DVDs that contain copy protection, the 96 kHz signal
may only be output from the analog audio jacks. When this
type of disc is encountered, even if [Down Sample Off] is
selected, the player automatically outputs the digital audio
signal at a compressed rate of 48 kHz or 44.1 kHz.
• Changes to the [Linear PCM Out] setting cannot be made
when a disc is playing.
