Notes
• To enjoy the TVS function, set “Digital Output” to
“On” and “Dolby Digital” to “D-PCM” in Audio
Setup.
• When the playback signal does not contain a signal for
the rear speakers, the surround effects will be difficult
to hear.
• When you select one of the surround modes, turn off
the surround settings of the connected TV or amplifier
(receiver).
• Make sure that your listening position is between and
at an equal distance from your speakers, and that the
speakers are located in similar surroundings.
• The TVS function cannot be used with discs recorded
on this recorder. Angles and subtitles also cannot be
changed.
• When you use the DIGITAL OUT (COAXIAL) jack to
listen to MPEG audio signals and set “MPEG” to
“MPEG” in Audio Setup, no sound will come from
your speakers if you select one of the TVS modes.
Notes on playing DTS sound tracks on a CD
• When playing DTS-encoded CDs, excessive noise will
be heard from the analogue stereo jacks. To avoid
possible damage to the audio system, the consumer
should take proper precautions when the analogue
stereo jacks of the recorder are connected to an
amplification system. To enjoy DTS Digital
Surround™ playback, an external 5.1-channel decoder
system must be connected to the digital jack of the
recorder.
• Set the sound to “Stereo” using the (audio)
button when you play DTS sound tracks on a CD
(page 54).
Notes on playing DVDs with a DTS sound track
DTS audio signals are output only through the DIGITAL
OUT (COAXIAL or OPTICAL) jack.
When you play a DVD with DTS sound tracks, set
“DTS” to “On” in Audio Setup (page 90).
