Setting Ex/Es Mode - Samsung HT-AS720S Instruction Manual

Setting EX/ES mode

When surround back speakers are connected, you can listen to 6.1 or 7.1 multi-channel sound
using the built-in Dolby Digital Surround EX or DTS ES decoder. This function works when a Dolby Digital or
DTS source (such as a DVD player) is input, and does not work with L.PCM and Dolby Digital 2 channel sources.
Dolby Digital - EX
Movie soundtracks encoded with Dolby Digital EX will play audio over
the surround back channels also.
You cannot use Dolby Digital-EX in the system without
•
Surround Back speakers connected.
EX/ES Mode must be set to On when playing back discs
•
encoded with 6.1 channel Dolby Digital-EX.
Some discs encoded with Dolby Digital-EX do not contain
•
an identification signal. In this case, set EX/ES to ON.
