DVD AUDIO DISCS
DVD Audio is a new disc format building on the success of DVD to
provide high quality, uncompressed, multichannel audio for a new
experience in audio quality. A DVD Audio disc can be identified by the
DVD audio logo on the disc jacket or on the disc itself. DVD Audio can
provide higher quality stereo than Audio CDs with a sampling rate of up
to 192 kHz (compared to 44.1 kHz for CDs). DVD Audio digital sound
can be delivered with up to 24 bits of data (compared to 16 bits for a
standard CD). A typical DVD Audio disc contains up to seven times the
data capacity of a CD. This additional space is used for music, either
Advanced Resolution multi-channel sound quality that is closer to the
artist’s master recording or for longer recordings. Many DVD Audio discs
contain on-screen text, such as artist biographies, play lists, or lyrics.
Some DVD Audio discs contain photo galleries or video clips.
NOTE
To enjoy maximum sound quality and surround effect of DVD Audio,
you must use 5.1 channel analog audio outputs (5.1CH AUDIO OUT
connectors on the DVD Player). If you use the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL
or COAXIAL) for your audio connection, the sound will only be
similar to CD-quality sound even though you’re playing a DVD Audio
disc.
MOVING TO ANOTHER GROUP
Some DVD Audio discs divide content into different groups. Your player
enables you to quickly access different groups during playback via the
on-screen display.
1 Press DISP during playback in stop mode.
2 Press
to select Group icon.
3 Press or the numbered buttons (0-9) to select a group number.
NOTE
Sometimes the author of the disc creates hidden content that can
only be accessed by entering a password. If the lock icon appears on
the TV screen, enter the password (sometimes you’ll find it on the
disc’s jacket cover or on a web site). This password control isn’t
dictated by your DVD Player - it is a function of the disc. Since the
authoring of DVD Audio Discs varies, some of the on-screen display
choices might not be available for the disc you’re playing.
VIEWING ANOTHER PAGE
Since DVD Audio discs can hold a lot of content, there are various ways
to see what’s available on the disc.
1 Press DISP during playback.
2 Press
to select Page icon.
3 Press to select a page number. What appears on the screen will
vary from disc to disc because the information available depends
upon the way the disc was created.
NOTE
Since the authoring of DVD Audio Discs varies, some of the on-
screen display choices might not be available for the disc you’re
playing.
