34 OPERATION
Sound settings
Digital output
The factory setting off ‘
All’ means both coaxial and
optical outputs are on, and Dolby Digital and MPEG-2
Multi-channel sound is going to the DVD Recorders
output.
If your equipment doesn't include a digital Multi-channel
decoder, set the digital output to ‘
PCM only’ (Pulse
Code Modulation). Both coaxial and optical outputs are
then switched on, and Dolby Digital and MPEG2 Multi-
channel are converted to PCM. If you are not connecting
to equipment with a digital input, change the setting to
‘
Off’.
Analog output
Select
Stereo, Surround or 3D Sound. Factory setting
is Stereo.
Surround : Select this setting when using equipment with
a Surround Pro Logic decoder. In this setting
the 5.1 audio channels (Dolby Digital, MPEG-
2) are downmixed to a Surround-compatible
2-channel output.
3D Sound: In a setup without rear speakers (analog
stereo output), this option remixes the six
channels of digital surround (Dolby Digital,
MPEG-2) into a two speaker output, while
retaining all of the original audio information.
The result is the listening sensation of being
surrounded by multiple speakers.
Night mode
Night mode optimizes the dynamics of the sound with
low volume playback for less disturbance in quiet
environments. This only works for Dolby Digital audio
on DVD video discs.
r Language settings
The preferred language can be adapted via the system
menu bar. Also see ‘Initial setup Language.’ Settings can
be changed for:
- Playback audio
- Recording audio
- Subtitle
- Menu (DVD Recorder system menus only)
Recording audio
You can set a preference for recording a stereo or
secondary audio program. Select ‘
Stereo’ or ‘SAP.’
This setting applies only if the broadcast contains stereo
or SAP. SAP usually means a program is broadcast in a
different language or with additional information

Adapt disc format
This option adapts the menu of a DVD+RW disc
recorded on a different brand of Recorder. It only
shows when such a disc is loaded.
A DVD+RW disc recorded on a different type of
Recorder can play, but may not provide all features
commonly available to DVD+RW discs, such as the
on-screen disc bar, disc settings menu, title settings
menu, and editing. If the disc is not erase-protected, the
disc format can be adapted to this Philips Recorder, after
which these functions are available.
Status box
The status box displays the current status of the
Recorder and the disc type loaded (see ‘Operation -
on-screen display information - Status box’). You can
switch it on or off.
Off = always Off. Status boxes do not appear.
On = Status box appears with the system menu bar or is
displayed temporarily (disappears after time-out)
when changing the playback or record status.
Factory setting is ‘ On.’
