Blu-ray Discs may include three audio streams : -- Main Feature Audio : The audio soundtrack of the main feature. -- BONUSVIEW audio : An additional soundtrack such as the director or actor's commentary. -- Navigation Sound Effects : When you choose a menu navigation selection, a Navigation Sound Effect may sound. Navigation Sound Effects are different on each Blu-ray Disc. ✎ NOTE ▪▪ 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. ▪▪ This Digital Output setup does not affect the HDMI audio output to your TV. It affects the coaxial and HDMI audio output when your player is connected to an AV receiver. ▪▪ If you play MPEG audio soundtracks, the audio signal outputs as PCM regardless of your Digital Output selections (PCM or Bitstream). PCM Downsampling Lets you set 48kHz and 96kHz PCM downsampling on or off. •• Off : Select when the AV receiver connected to the player is 96kHz compatible. •• On : Select when the AV receiver connected to the player is not 96kHz compatible. 96kHz signals will be down converted to 48kHz. ✎ NOTE ▪▪ Even when PCM Downsampling is set to Off, some discs will only output downsampled audio through the coaxial digital outputs. HDMI •• 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. Dynamic Range Control You can listen at low volumes, but still hear dialog clearly. This is only active if your player detects a Dolby Digital signal. •• Auto : The Dynamic Range Control will be set automatically based on the information provided by the Dolby TrueHD Soundtrack. •• Off : You can enjoy the movie with the standard Dynamic Range. •• On : When Movie soundtracks are played at low volume or through smaller speakers, the system can apply appropriate compression to make low-level content more intelligible and prevent dramatic passages from getting too loud. Downmixing Mode Select Downmix method for stereo output. •• Normal Stereo : Downmix the multichannel audio into normal stereo. Choose this if you hear the sound from TV or Stereo Amplifier. •• Surround Compatible : Downmix the multichannel audio into surround compatible stereo. This mode helps your AV Receiver to decode stereo into surround sound. 15
