System Setup
Audio Settings
The Audio Setting Submenu contains the follow-
ing settings. Follow the explanations in the
Upper Menu Line on the bottom of your screen
to change the settings.
Preferred Audio Language:
Defines your pre-
ferred audio language. Every time a disc is
played that contains this audio language, it will
be activated automatically. If you do not find
your preferred language in the list of options,
you can select your preferred language by typing
a 4-digit code found in the code list on page 20.
Digital Output:
If your system includes 5.1
digital audio surround decoding (Dolby Digital
and/or DTS), select ORIGINAL as the digital out-
put. In that case all audio signals will be output
with their original format. If your system only
includes stereo and/or Dolby Pro Logic, select
PCM. Then all audio signals will be output in
PCM format only (DTS will output no signal).
PCM Limit:
The DVD 506 is compatible with
both 48 kHz and 96 kHz sampling, but some
early A/V receivers and surround processors are
not. If your A/V receiver or surround processor is
NOT capable of handling 96 kHz signals, select
the 48 kHz option. If your A/V receiver or sur-
round processor IS capable of handling 96 kHz
signals, select the 96 kHz option to achieve the
greatest audio fidelity available. If NONE is
selected, the complete signal will be passed
through to your A/V Receiver or surround
processor.
Dynamic Range:
This setting enables Dolby
Digital recordings to be played back with full
dialogue intelligibility while reducing peak levels.
This smooth level compression prevents abrupt
loud transitions from disturbing others without
reducing the impact of the digital source percep-
tibly.

ing settings. Follow the explanations in the

ratio, conventional screen shape (4:3) or

Progressive. Before changing the setting to
Progressive, make sure that your video display is
capable of handling progressive scan signals. As
soon as you select progressive scan the scan
type, the Video Output will automatically change

Scart or Component. Scart will be used for most
TV’s. Component will be used for most LCD,
Plasma and projectors.

put signals will be routed over the scart. RGB
