Features
This unit is a compatible player for DVD Audio, DVD
Video, Audio CD and Video CD.
Audio features
7 Supports audio formats for DVD Audio including high
sampling frequencies up to 192 kHz, the linear PCM
multichannel format, up to 24-bit resolution and MLP,
as well as the audio formats for DVD Video such as
Dolby Digital 5.1 ch. and DTS.
· DOLBY DIGITAL
A surround audio format configured with six channels.
Because the "sub-woofer" channel, one of the six channels,
is an auxiliary channel, this format is called "5.1-channel
system."
· DTS (Digital Theater Systems)
A surround audio format configured with six (5.1) channels
which is same as Dolby Digital. Because the compression
ratio is lower than Dolby Digital, it provides wider dynamic
range and better separation.
· MLP (Meridian Lossless Packing)
A format for DVD Audio with the compression ratio of about
2:1 while allowing the PCM signal to be completely recreated
by the MLP decoder (required in all DVD-Audio players). It
supports up to 192kHz/24-bit.
· Linear PCM
Uncompressed digital audio, the same format used on CDs
and most studio masters.
DVD Audio supports up to 6 channels at sample rates of 48/
96/192 kHz (also 44.1/88.2/176.4 kHz) and sample sizes of
16/20/24 bits, while DVD Video supports 2 channels at
sample rates of 48/96 kHz and sample sizes of 16/20/24 bits.
Audio CD/Video CD is limited to 2 channels, 44.1 kHz at 16
bits.
7 The 3D PHONIC system allows you to enjoy virtual
surround sound with the conventional 2-channel (ste-
reo) audio system.
7 Provides the multichannel (5.1) analog audio outputs,
as well as the PCM/Bitstream digital audio outputs.
Video features
7 Supports the Progressive scan system, as well as the
conventional (current) Interlace scan system.
