Connecting to an AV amplifier containing Dolby Digital or dts (digital theater systems)
decoder
When DVDs recorded in Dolby Digital or dts are played, Dolby Digital bitstream or dts bitstream is output from the player’s OPTICAL
digital audio output connector or COAXIAL digital audio output connector. When the player is connected to a Dolby Digital decoder or
dts decoder, you can enjoy theater-quality audio in your home. [An optical digital audio cable or coaxial digital audio cable (both
optional) is required when an optional Dolby Digital decoder or dts decoder is used.]
Note:
ÁWhen connecting an AV amplifier which contains dts decoder, be sure to select “Bitstream” at “3 dts” of the initial setting “7 Digital
Audio Output”. (“Off” is selected at the factory preset.) If “Off” is selected, dts bitstream is not output from the digital audio output
connector.
