Changing the Sound
When playing a DVD VIDEO recorded in
multiple audio formats (PCM, Dolby Digital
or DTS), you can change the audio format. If
the DVD VIDEO is recorded with
multilingual tracks, you can also change the
language.
With CDs, DATA CDs, DATA DVDs or
VIDEO CDs, you can select the sound from
either the right or left channel and listen to the
sound of the selected channel through both
the right and left speakers. For example, when
playing a disc containing a song with the
vocals on the right channel and the
instruments on the left channel, you can hear
the instruments from both speakers by
selecting the left channel.
