SYSTEM SETUP
Show Angle Icon: This setting controls the activation of the Angle Icon. When this setting is turned ON, the Angle Icon, which is a small image of a movie camera, will appear in the upper right corner of the screen when multiple-angle material is available on the disc being played. When the icon appears, press the Angle Button s on the remote to switch between the available views or program material. Audio Setup Menu This menu establishes the DVD�s configuration for general audio settings, such as preferred language and digital audio settings. As with all setup menus, press the OSD Button ` to activate the main menu screen, and then press the � /� Navigation Buttons e so that SETUP is highlighted. Press Enter Button z, and then use the K/L� /� Navigation Buttons e until the / AUDIO SETUP menu is highlighted within a white outline and press the Enter Button z again. Finally, press the K/L� /� Navigation Buttons / e once more to move the highlight to the Control Settings ç side of the menu screen. Digital Output: This setting selects the digital audio data stream that is routed to the Optical Digital Output ¡ or the Coaxial Digital Output �. Two choices are available: � ORIGINAL, which is the default setting, sends the Dolby Digital or DTS soundtrack, as selected from the disc�s menu or by using the Audio Button c, as explained on page 25. This setting should be used when your receiver or processor is capable of decoding signals in the Dolby Digital or DTS format. � PCM, which outputs a standard PCM signal for decoding by standard digital-to-audio converters that are not compatible with Dolby Digital or DTS data streams. PCM Limit: This setting selects the maximum sample rate for the digital audio output of the DVD 31. Before making a selection for this option, consult the owner�s manual for your receiver or processor to determine the maximum sampling rate your receiver or processor is capable of handling. Three choices are available: � If your receiver is not capable of resolving digital signals greater than 48kHz, or if you are uncertain of your equipment�s capabilities, select the 48kHz option. The DVD 31 will down-sample any program material with higher sample rates so that it is compatible with your equipment. � If your receiver or processor is capable of handling digital signals up to 96kHz, select that option. The DVD 31 will down-sample any program material with higher sample rates so that it is compatible with your equipment. � If your receiver or processor is capable of handling digital signals up to 192kHz, select the No Limit option. In this case all signals will be passed through at their native rates without down-sampling. If you are unsure of the capabilities of your receiver or processor, we suggest that you start with the 96kHz option. If you select this setting and do not hear any audio when a high-resolution disc is played, change the setting to 48kHz so that the audio will be properly downsampled. Dynamic Range: This setting allows you to take advantage of the programming present on some Dolby Digital recordings to reduce the volume of louder, peak passages while maintaining intelligibility of quieter passages. This means that you may listen to programs at a level that allows the full impact of a soundtrack to be heard at a volume that is lower than you might otherwise use to avoid complaints about loud volume levels. The DVD 31 accomplishes this by compressing the audio to a greater or lesser degree, depending on which setting you choose. Three options are available: � MINIMUM does not make any changes to the original playback, and should be used when the volume setting in the listening room may be as loud as you desire. � MEDIUM applies a moderate amount of compression so that louder passages are a little bit quieter. � MAXIMUM applies more compression so that louder passages are much softer. Feel free to experiment with the settings at any time. Note that if your receiver or processor also allows you to program the dynamic range setting, also known as the �Night Mode,� you do not need to make any adjustments on the DVD 31 and should leave the setting at MINIMUM. Audio Adjustments: This setting activates the AUDIO ADJUSTMENTS menu�s options. If your DVD 31 is connected to a receiver or processor that does NOT have the capability to adjust bass management/speaker size, output levels and delay times on its �direct� inputs, the proper setting here is On. However, if your receiver or processor does allow adjustment for these settings, we recommend that you make them there and select Bypass on this submenu. Delay Unit: This setting selects the measurement system used in entering delay times when the AUDIO ADJUSTMENTS menu is activated. Distance entry in feet is the default, but you may alternatively choose to enter the distances in meters. Audio Adjustments Menu This menu allows you to adjust the settings that control the audio output on the 5.1-Channel Audio Outputs ¢ for bass management (speaker size), output level and delay times. The proper adjustment of these settings is key to optimal reproduction of DVDAudio discs, particularly when the DVD 31 is used with a receiver or processor that does not have audio adjustment capabilities for the direct inputs. Important Note: In order to avoid audio problems, when the DVD 31 is connected to a receiver or processor that DOES have the capability to adjust audio and bass management parameters internally for direct inputs, you may use that capability or adjust the settings in the DVD 31. As noted above, the preferred method of operation is to use the receiver for these adjustments. In that case, remember to set the AUDIO ADJUSTMENTS setting in the AUDIO SETUP menu to BYPASS. If you make the adjustments using the DVD 31's settings, it is important that the receiver's settings for the �direct� inputs be disabled or set to �Large� for the speakers and �0� for the level adjustments and delay times, provided that these settings are separate for the �Direct� inputs from the rest of the receiver�s operation. If you have any questions about the capabilities of your receiver or processor, we recommend that you consult its owner�s manual or the manufacturer�s Web site for further information.
The following adjustments are available on the AUDIO SETUP menu: Preferred Audio Language: This setting is used to select the default language that will be used for program playback. The factory default setting is English, but you may choose French, Spanish, German or Italian by making a selection on the Adjustment Options � line. To select a language other than those shown, select OTHER from the choices on the Adjustment Options � line and press the Enter Button z. Then, use the Numeric Keys p to enter the four-digit code listed on page 30 for the desired language. This selects a preferred audio program language, but it will only be available when the disc being played contains that language. The list of languages available on any given disc is always shown on the disc jacket, usually at the bottom of the back cover. Note that the audio playback language may also be changed at any time during playback using the Audio Button c, as described on page 24, but any changes made will only be effective during playback of that disc.
