Configuring the DV-CP706
—Continued
Video Black Level
With this setting you can adjust the picture blackness of
analog video output.
Light:
Blacks are lighter, and the entire picture
becomes lighter.
Dark:
Blacks are darker, and the entire picture
becomes darker.
On the North American model, Light is the default set-
ting. On the Australian model, Dark is the default setting.
Brightness
With this setting you can adjust the picture brightness.
1-7:
1 is the darkest. 7 is the brightest. The default
brightness is 4 (default).
Sharpness
With this setting you can adjust the picture sharpness.
1-7:
1 is the softest. 7 is the sharpest. The default
sharpness is 4 (default).
PAL Output Setting (Australian model only)
With this setting you can specify how the DV-CP706
outputs video signals.
AUTO (default):
Use this option to watch PAL and
NTSC format discs. The DV-CP706 does not convert
the video format. When you play a PAL disc, the
video output will be PAL format. And when you play
an NTSC disc, it’ll be NTSC format. Your TV must
support NTSC playback in order to watch NTSC for-
mat discs.
NTSC:
Use this option if you want to play only
NTSC format discs. When you play a PAL disc, the
DV-CP706 will convert PAL format video signals to
NTSC-compatible format.
PAL:
Use this option if your TV doesn’t support
NTSC playback, or the picture is distorted when
watching NTSC discs. The DV-CP706 will convert
NTSC format video signals to PAL-compatible for-
mat.
Note:
• This setting can also be changed by pressing and hold-
ing the Next
button, and then pressing [ON/
STANDBY] button.
Digital/HDMI Audio Out
With this setting you can configure the optical, coaxial,
and HDMI digital outputs.
All (default):
Dolby Digital and DTS signals are out-
put as they are.
PCM:
Dolby Digital signals are down mixed to 2
channels and output as PCM.
Off:
No digital signals are output.
Linear PCM Out
With this setting you can configure the DV-CP706 to
output digital audio with higher sampling rates (e.g.,
96 kHz) as it is or down sample it to 48 kHz.
If the AV component you connect to the DV-CP706’s
digital audio outputs supports 96 kHz digital audio,
select Down Sample Off. Otherwise, select Down Sam-
ple On.
Down Sample On:
96 kHz digital audio is down
sampled and output at 48 kHz.
Down Sample Off (default):
96 kHz digital audio is
output as it is.
Notes:
• Some copy-protected DVD-Video discs may use
96 kHz digital audio only for A/D conversion to the
analog audio outputs.
• With some discs, even if you select Down Sample Off,
the digital audio will be down sampled to 48 kHz, and
in some cases may not be output by the DV-CP706’s
digital audio outputs.
Dynamic Range Control (Dolby Digital
only)
With the Dynamic Range Control function you can
reduce the dynamic range of Dolby Digital material so
that you can still hear quiet parts even when listening at
low volume levels—ideal for watching movies late at
night when you don’t want to disturb anyone.
On:
The dynamic range of Dolby Digital material is
compressed.
Off (default):
The full dynamic range is preserved.
Notes:
• The impact of the Dynamic Range Control function
depends on the Dolby Digital material that you are
playing and with some material there will be little or
no effect.
• When the DV-CP706 is set to Standby, this function is
automatically set to off.
