Connection: DVD + TV + Audio Receiver

Both Dolby Digital® and DTS® are audio formats
used to record 5.1-channel audio signals onto the
digital track of film (while the film is being made).
Both of these formats provide up to six separate
channels: left, right, center, left rear, right rear,
and common subwoofer. The disc will play 5.1-
channel sound only if you've connected a DTS or
Dolby Digital receiver or decoder and if the disc is
encoded in the Dolby Digital or DTS format.
Please Read This Before Using the DIGITAL
AUDIO OUT Jack!
This player's digital output jack is designed for a connection to a
Dolby Digital or DTS receiver or decoder. Older digital
equipment may not be compatible with the Dolby Digital
bitstream. Such a connection can create a high level of noise that
may be harmful to your ears, and could damage headphones or
speakers. It is important to change the setting in the DVD Player's
Sound menu. For more information, go to page 42.
