Changing the Sound
If the DVD is recorded with multilingual tracks, you can
select the language you want while playing the DVD.
If the DVD is recorded in multiple audio formats (PCM,
Dolby Digital, MPEG or DTS), you can select the audio
format you want while playing the DVD.
With CDs or VIDEO CDs, you can select the sound from
the right or left channel and listen to the sound of the
selected channel through both the right and left speakers.
In this case, the sound loses its stereo effect. For example,
with a disc containing a song, the right channel may
output the vocals and the left channel may output the
instrumental. If you only want to hear the instrumental,
you can select the left channel and hear it from both
speakers.
Select “AUDIO” after pressing DISPLAY.
