Digital multi-channel sound
A digital multi-channel connection generates the best
sound quality. You will require a multi-channel au-
dio/video receiver that supports one or more of the re-
corder audio formats (MPEG 2, Dolby Digital
™
and
DTS). Read the manual and note the logos on the
front of the receiver.
Connecting a 5.1 channel audio/video receiver (a-
nalogue)
1. Connect the AUDIO OUTPUT sockets on the re-
corder (L, R, SL, SR, CENTER, SUBWOOFER) to
the corresponding input sockets on the amplifier
using the cinch audio cable (not included in the
delivery). An active speaker system (PC speakers)
can be connected to these sockets.
Important!
The digital DTS output is activated when a DTS
audio stream is selected due to the DTS licence
agreement.
Notes
•
If the receiver does not support the audio format
of the digital output, the receiver emits a loud, dis-
torted noise or no sound at all.
•
Six-channel digital surround sound is only possi-
ble via a digital connection and if the receiver is
fitted with a digital multi-channel decoder.
•
Press AUDIO to display the audio format of the
current DVD on the screen.
•
This recorder does not decode (2 channel) DTS
audio languages internally. To produce DTS multi-
channel surround sound, connect the recorder to
a DTS compatible receiver via one of the digital
audio outputs.
