Sony dvp-ns30 User Manual

Switches the method of outputting audio 
signals when you connect a component such 
as an amplifier (receiver) or MD deck with a 
digital input jack.
For connection details, see page 17.
Select “DOLBY DIGITAL,” “MPEG,” 
“DTS,” and “48kHz/96kHz PCM” after 
setting “DIGITAL OUT” to “ON.”
If you connect a component that is 
incompatible with the selected audio signal, a 
loud noise (or no sound) may be heard from 
the speakers, risking damage to your ears or 
speakers.

◆ DOLBY DIGITAL (DVD VIDEO/DVD-RW 
only)

Selects the type of Dolby Digital signal.

◆ MPEG (DVD VIDEO/DVD-RW only)

Selects the type of MPEG audio signal.

◆ DTS

Selects whether or not to output DTS signals.

◆ 48kHz/96kHz PCM (DVD VIDEO only)

Selects the sampling frequency of the audio 
signal.

The analogue audio signals from the LINE OUT L/
R (AUDIO) jacks are not affected by this setting 
and keep their original sampling frequency level.

D-PCM

Select this when the player is 
connected to an audio 
component without a built-in 
Dolby Digital decoder. You can 
select whether the signals 
conform to Dolby Surround 
(Pro Logic) or not by making 
adjustments to the 
“DOWNMIX” item in 
“AUDIO SETUP” (page 59).

DOLBY 
DIGITAL

Select this when the player is 
connected to an audio 
component with a built-in 
Dolby Digital decoder.

PCM

Select this when the player is 
connected to an audio 
component without a built-in 
MPEG decoder. If you play 
MPEG audio sound tracks, the 
player outputs stereo signals 
via the DIGITAL OUT 
(COAXIAL) jack.

MPEG

Select this when the player is 
connected to an audio 
component with a built-in 
MPEG decoder.

OFF

Select this when the player is 
connected to an audio 
component without a built-in 
DTS decoder.

connected to an audio 
component with a built-in DTS 
decoder.

48kHz/16bit

The audio signals of DVD 
VIDEOs are always converted 
to 48kHz/16bit.

96kHz/24bit

All types of signals including 
96kHz/24bit are output in their 
original format. However, if the 
signal is encrypted for 
copyright protection purposes, 
the signal is only output as 
48kHz/16bit.
