digital audio system
Before controlling the audio, see “Selecting the optical audio
output format” on page 126.
Some audio systems may not be compatible with Dolby Digital
bitstream signals. Older audio systems that are not compatible with
standard optical out signals may not work properly, creating a high
noise level that may damage speakers or headphones. THIS
DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY.
The DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminal may not output some digital audio
sources because of copy restrictions.
The Dolby Digital format is available in the following situations:
❖ When tuned to a digital RF channel
❖ When an HDMI input is used
❖ When DLNA Certified products are used
