option is available when you set Digital Output setup
as PCM.

Navigation Sound Effects.

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).

If your TV is not compatible with PCM sampling
rates over 48kHz, the player may output 48kHz
downsampled PCM audio even though you set
