Note

Down mix is the process of converting multi-channel audio to 

a lesser number of channels. For example, converting a 5.1ch 

source to stereo or converting a 7.1ch source to 5.1ch. Down 

mixing allows the audio output from the player to match the exact 

number of speakers available in your home theater.
The current down mix mode is displayed in the lower right corner 

of the speaker placement illustration. To change the audio down 

mix setting, press the ENTER button while the cursor is over the 

“Down Mix” option. The following down mix modes are available:

•   LT/RT – Left Total/Right Total. The center and surround 

channels are mixed into the two front channels according to 

the LT/RT matrix. A Dolby Pro Logic receiver will decode the 

two-channel audio into surround audio.

•   Stereo – This mode down-mixes multi-channel audio to 

2-channel stereo output. For original stereo content the 

output will not change. For original multi-channel content the 

surround and center channels will be mixed with the left and 

right front channels. Recommended for use with TV sets or 

stereo receiver/amplifiers.

•   5.1Ch – This mode enables 5.1ch decoded audio output. The 

number of actual output channels depends on the disc. If the 

source content has more channels, the surround back channels 

will be mixed into the surround channels.

•   7.1Ch – This mode enables 7.1ch decoded audio output. The 

number of actual output channels depends on the disc. For 

6.1ch contents, the left and right surround back speakers will 

both output the same surround back audio channel.
