NOTES

Be sure to select the correct Digital Output or

you will hear no sound or just loud noise.

If the HDMI device (AV receiver, TV) is not

compatible with compressed formats (Dolby

Digital, DTS), the audio signal outputs as

PCM.

Regular DVDs do not have BONUSVIEW audio

and Navigation Sound Effects.

Some Blu-ray Discs do not have BONUSVIEW

audio and Navigation Sound Effects.

If you play MPEG audio soundtracks, the

audio signal outputs as PCM regardless

of your Digital Output selections (PCM or

Bitstream).

If your TV is not compatible with compressed

multi-channel formats (Dolby Digital, DTS),

the player may output PCM 2ch downmixed

audio even though you selected Bitstream

(either Re-encoded or Unprocessed) in the

setup menu.

If your TV is not compatible with PCM

sampling rates over 48kHz, the player may

output 48kHz downsampled PCM audio even

though you set PCM Downsampling to Off.

PCM Downsampling

Lets you choose to have 96KHz PCM

signals downsampled to 48KHz before

they are outputted to an amplifier.

Choose On if your amplifier or receiver

is not compatible with a 96KHz signal.

Dynamic Range Control

Lets you apply dynamic range control

to Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, and

Dolby TrueHD audio.

• Auto : Automatically controls the

dynamic range of Dolby TrueHD

audio, based on information in the

Dolby TrueHD soundtrack.

Also turns dynamic range control on

for Dolby Digital and Dolby Digital

Plus.

• Off : Leaves the dynamic range

uncompressed, letting you hear the

original sound.

• On : Turns dynamic range control on

for all three Dolby formats. Quieter

sounds are made louder and the

volume of loud sounds is reduced.

Downmixing Mode

Lets you select the multi-channel

downmix method that is compatible

with your stereo system. You can

choose to have the player downmix

to normal stereo or to surround

compatible stereo.
