Dolby Digital Selects the audio signals output when playing Dolby Digital discs. This setting affects the output from the DIGITAL OUT (COAXIAL/OPTICAL) jack. Downmix PCM Dolby Digital Converts to output Linear PCM signals. Select this when connecting an audio device without a built-in Dolby Digital decoder. Select this when connecting an audio device with a builtin Dolby Digital decoder. DTS Selects the audio signals output when playing DTS discs. This setting affects the output from the DIGITAL OUT (COAXIAL/ OPTICAL) jack. Downmix PCM DTS Converts to output Linear PCM signals. Select this when connecting to an audio device without a built-in DTS decoder. Select this when connecting to an audio device with a built-in DTS decoder. 48kHz/96kHz PCM Selects the maximum sampling frequency for the PCM signals output from the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL/COAXIAL) jack. 48kHz/16bit 96kHz/24bit Outputs audio signals of 96 kHz sampling as 48 kHz/ 16 bit. Outputs audio signals of 96 kHz sampling as 96 kHz/ 24 bit. However, the signals will be output as 48 kHz/ 16 bit if the source is copyprotected. b • If you select "96kHz/24bit" when an AV amplifier (receiver) that does not support 96 kHz is connected, no sound or a loud sound may result. • "48kHz/96kHz PCM" is not effective when "Audio Output Priority" is set to "HDMI," "Multi Channel Analog," or "Stereo Analog." Audio DRC Selects the dynamic range (compression level of the sound) setting when playing a BD or DVD that conforms to "Audio DRC." Auto Standard TV Mode Wide Range Performs playback at the dynamic range specified by the disc (BD-ROM only). Other discs are played back at the "Standard" level. Performs playback at a compression level between "TV Mode" and "Wide Range." Sounds are compressed heavily. Low sounds are easier to hear. No compression works. A more dynamic sound is produced. b • "Audio DRC" is effective only when playing Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, and Dolby TrueHD audio signals. • When "Dolby Digital" is set to "Dolby Digital" in the "Audio Settings" setup (page 72), "Audio DRC" has no effect on the audio output from the DIGITAL OUT (OPTICAL/COAXIAL) jack. However, this excludes the following cases. - when "BD Audio Setting" is set to "Mix" when playing a BD. - when "Audio Output Priority" is set to "HDMI," "Multi Channel Analog," or "Stereo Analog." 72US
