Choosing a Digital Sound Format (Dolby Digital or PCM) Both analog and digital audio are available from the rear-panel connectors of the WIRELESS HOME AV CENTER. The digital sound inputs and outputs are labeled "DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (COAXIAL), DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL), and DIGITAL AUDIO IN (OPTICAL)". After connecting a digital-audio component, you must specify the transmission format. 1 Press the MENU button. Press the ▲ or ▼ button to select "Setup", then press the ENTER button. 2 Press the ▲ or ▼ button to select "Sound IN/OUT", then press the ENTER button. 3 Press the ▲ or ▼ button to select "Digital Input" or "Digital Output", then press the ENTER button. • Lt/Rt : Left total/right total. Four surround channels matrixed into two channels. Mandatory downmixing output in Dolby Digital decoders. • SPDIF : S/PDIF (Sony/Philips Digital Interface) is a standard audio transfer file format. It is found on digital audio equipment. It allows the transfer of audio from one file to another without analog to digital conversion which can degrade the signal quality. • Dolby Digital : Dolby Digital, formerly known as AC-3, is a digital audio coding technique that reduces the amount of data needed to produce high quality sound. Dolby Digital is used with digital versatile discs (DVDs), high definition television (HDTV), and digital cable and satellite transmissions. It has been selected as the audio standard for digital television (DTV). Dolby Digital provides five full-bandwidth channels, front left, front right, center, surround left, and surround right, for true surround sound quality. A low frequency effect (LFE) channel is included that provides the sound needed for special effects and action sequences in movies. The LFE channel is one-tenth of the bandwidth of the other channels and is sometimes erroneously called the subwoofer channel. This multichannel scheme is known as 5.1 channel. • PCM : A coded representation of digital data that is not compressed. Linear PCM spreads values evenly across the range from highest to lowest, as opposed to nonlinear (compressed) PCM which allocates more values to more important frequency ranges. ➤ Manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories.
