Functions

This player is compatible with DVD, Video CD, and CD
disc formats. Users already familiar with Video CD or CD
will already be familiar with some of the functions the
player is capable of performing. With DVD, an even
greater number of possibilities and functions are
available.

Note

DVDs differ in content and do not all contain the same
information. Therefore some functions in this section may
not work or have no effect on some DVDs.

Getting Surround Sound from
Stereo Speakers

– DVD/Video CD

Depending on the audio source, this player is capable of
switching between Virtual Dolby Digital (multichannel
audio sources) and TruSurround (stereo audio sources) to
produce a surround sound effect from stereo speakers.
This function works only when connections are
made to the AUDIO OUT (2CH) jacks and AV
CONNECTOR jacks.

Settings: Off*

2V/TruSurround

*Factory setting

Notes

• There is no effect when the audio source is either DTS or

96 kHz LPCM or during CD playback.

• When the “VIRTUAL DOLBY DIGITAL” indicator is lit

during playback, and [Dolby Digital

the [Dolby Digital Out] setting in the Setup screen Audio

menu, there is no audio output from the digital output
jacks.

• The Virtual Surround mode can also be turned on and off by

pressing VIRTUAL DOLBY DIGITAL on the front panel.

TruSurround and Virtual Dolby Digital

TruSurround uses technology that simulates
multichannel surround sound using only two speakers.
Virtual Dolby Digital works in conjunction with Dolby
Digital audio sources to create a realistic surround
sound. Virtual Dolby Digital is selected automatically
when Dolby Digital sources are loaded.

Adjusting the Dynamic Range
of the Audio Soundtrack

– DVD

Audio DRC stands for Audio Dynamic Range
Compression. When Audio DRC is on, soft sounds such
as dialog can be heard more clearly without making loud
sounds even louder. Select from three levels of
compression depending on how much effect you want.
When Audio DRC is set to [Off], there is no effect on
the audio source.
Make changes to the [Audio DRC] setting in the Setup
screen Audio 2 menu.
