Settings for the Sound (AUDIO SETUP) (continued) x DOWNMIX Switches the mixing down methods when you play a DVD on which rear signal components such as LS, RS or S are recorded in Dolby Digital format. For details on the rear signal components, see "Displaying the audio information of the disc" (page 55). This affects the output when: - you have made the connections using an audio connecting cord - you have made the connections using an optical digital connecting cord (when you set "DOLBY DIGITAL" to "D-PCM" in "DIGITAL OUT") • DOLBY SURROUND: when the player is connected to an audio component that conforms to Dolby Surround (Pro Logic). The output signals which reproduce the Dolby Surround (Pro Logic) effect are mixed down to 2 channels. • NORMAL: when the player is connected to an audio component that does not conform to Dolby Surround (Pro Logic). The signal without the Dolby Surround (Pro Logic) effect are output. Setting the digital output signal (DIGITAL OUT) Switches the methods of outputting audio signals when you, connect 1. a digital component such as a receiver (amplifier) having a digital connector, 2. an audio component having a built-in decoder (Dolby Digital or DTS), 3. a DAT or MD using an optical digital connecting cord. For connection details, see pages 19 and 22. Note When you have made the connections using an optical digital connecting cord and play sound tracks with a 96 kHz sampling frequency, the output signals are converted to 48 kHz (sampling frequency). When you have made the connections using an audio connecting cord, sampling frequency stays at 96 kHz and the output signals are converted to analog signals. 92 Settings and Adjustments

DOWNMIX
Switches the mixing down methods when you play a DVD on which rear
signal components such as LS, RS or S are recorded in Dolby Digital format.
For details on the rear signal components, see “Displaying the audio
information of the disc” (page 55).
This affects the output when:
you have made the connections using an audio connecting cord
you have made the connections using an optical digital connecting cord
(when you set “DOLBY DIGITAL” to “D-PCM” in “DIGITAL OUT”)
DOLBY SURROUND: when the player is connected to an audio
component that conforms to Dolby Surround (Pro Logic). The output
signals which reproduce the Dolby Surround (Pro Logic) effect are mixed
down to 2 channels.
• NORMAL: when the player is connected to an audio component that does
not conform to Dolby Surround (Pro Logic). The signal without the Dolby
Surround (Pro Logic) effect are output.
Setting the digital output signal (DIGITAL OUT)
Switches the methods of outputting audio signals when you, connect 1.
a digital component such as a receiver (amplifier) having a digital
connector, 2. an audio component having a built-in decoder (Dolby
Digital or DTS), 3. a DAT or MD using an optical digital connecting
cord. For connection details, see pages 19 and 22.
Note
When you have made the connections using an optical digital connecting cord and
play sound tracks with a 96 kHz sampling frequency, the output signals are converted
to 48 kHz (sampling frequency).
When you have made the connections using an
audio connecting cord, sampling frequency stays at 96 kHz and the output signals are
converted to analog signals.
