Function Setting
TV MODE
• If you switch your TV (i.e. because you have bought a new one) and
the screen size of the connected TV changes, you will have to change
the “TV MODE” setting.
• You can set the screen aspect ratio of the connected TV, and adjust
video output.
• Select “TV MODE” from “VIDEO/AUDIO SETTING”.
WIDE 16:9:
Select this when connecting with a TV with a 16:9
screen aspect ratio.
NORMAL 4:3:
Select this when connecting with a TV with a 4:3 screen
aspect ratio.
LETTER BOX:
If you connect with a TV whose screen aspect ratio is
4:3 and playback a DVD with 16:9 video, the video will
be played back with black bands at the top and bottom,
while maintaining the 16:9 ratio.
PAN SCAN:
If you connect with a TV whose screen aspect ratio is
4:3 and playback a DVD with 16:9 video, the video will
be played back with the left and right sides of the image
cut off to display in 4:3 screen aspect ratio.
(This function works if the disc is labeled for 4:3PS.)
DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT
• You can set this to enjoy Dolby Digital sound, DTS or MPEG sound
when connecting with digital input compatible device using Digital
cable.
PCM:
This setting is for when you digitally connect with 2ch
audio device or an MD recorder. This changes Dolby
Digital sound, DTS or MPEG sound to PCM
(uncompressed) output which can be played back with
2ch audio device.
BIT STREAM:
This setting is for when you digitally connect with audio
device which is compatible with Dolby Digital sound,
DTS or MPEG sound.
You can also enjoy DTS audio if you connect with an
amplifier or other component which is compatible with
DTS digital surround.
NOTE
• When a DTS signal is input, the data is output as a bit
stream even if “DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT” is set to
“PCM”.
DD OUTPUT LEVEL
• This lets you adjust the range between the loudest and softest sound
(dynamic range), and play back at the average volume. Use this
when it is hard to hear dialog.
NO:
This outputs recorded audio as is.
YES*:
This raises the average volume when playing back
Dolby Digital audio so that the volume sounds the same
as an audio CD. (If the audio sounds abnormal, set to
“NO”.)
* Lower the volume before setting. If you do not do so, the speaker
may emit a loud sound, or excessive input may be applied to the
speaker.
