SPDIF OUTPUT
SPDIF/OFF
: Choose this setting if your DVD player is
connected to only audio signals from analog audio output
jacks. For the coaxial output jack, there will be no signal.
SPDIF/RAW
: Choose this setting if your DVD player is
connected to a power amplifier with a coaxial cable.
When playing a disc recorded with Dolby Digital, DTS
and/or MPEG audio formats, the corresponding digital
signals will be output from the coaxial output jack. This
player’s digital output jacks are designed for connection
to a Dolby Digital, DTS and/or MPEG receiver or
decoder.
SPDIF/PCM
: Choose this setting if your DVD player is
connected to a 2-channel digital stereo amplifier. When
playing a disc recorded with Dolby Digital and MPEG
audio formats, audio signals will be modulated into 2-
channel PCM signal and it will be output from the coaxial
output jack.
C) DOLBY SETUP
You could only benefit from changing the settings in this Dolby setup as long as you have a
digital connection to your Dolby digital amplifier/receiver.
The DOLBY SETUP options are
illustrated below:
z
DUAL MONO
If you have Dolby digital output in your
amplifier/decoder, you may select
STEREO
,
LEFT-
MONO
,
RIGHT-MONO
and
MIX-MONO
sound
accordingly.
z
DYNAMIC
Choose this setting to adjust
the range between the softest
and loudest levels a source can produce without distortion.
When you set the dynamic range to
FULL, the peak values
of the audio will be minimized, this is great for night time
viewing as you do not have to keep on changing the
volume level when you are listening to louder parts of a
movie or musical piece (i.e. explosions, rock concerts
etc.). When you change the setting to OFF, you will hear
the sound as it was recorded when it was being
produced. This means that some parts of a musical
piece or movie might be much louder then other parts
depending on the musical piece or movie.
