Analogue NTSC black (Pedestal)
This setting controls the ‘pedestal’ signal or black level
when the NTSC video standard is used.
0 IRE This removes the pedestal from NTSC
video. This setting should be used in Japan,
and also if you are using RGB video,
whatever the country.
7.5 IRE
This is the standard pedestal level that
should be used in all countries that use
NTSC video, with the exception of Japan.
This setting can be changed only if ‘Main video output’
is set to ‘Analogue’. Note that this setting has no effect
on PAL, progressive scan or HDMI outputs.
SAT SCART switching
AV SCART switching
These menu items indicate to the display if SCART
output is active or not, so that the display can switch
to its SCART input automatically. The options are
‘Auto’ – the default, and ‘Forced’.
Auto
(SCART)
Signals that SCART is active, depending on
what is connected to Solo Movie 5.1. This is the
default option.
Forced Signals that SCART is active independently of
what is connected to Solo Movie 5.1.
Select this option if Composite input is used.
Audio set-up
This section allows you to configure the analogue,
digital and HDMI audio outputs. In particular, the
digital output type needs to be set correctly if you
are using an external audio decoder, receiver or D-A
converter.
Digital audio output
This setting configures the digital audio output
– coaxial, optical and HDMI.
S/PDIF
stereo
PCM
When the ‘Stereo PCM’ digital output is
selected, all audio material played is down-
mixed to stereo and output as stereo PCM.
Use this setting if you have an external D-A
converter that supports only two-channel
PCM.
S/PDIF
bitstream
The Bitstream setting supports the following
audio standards:
<
2 channel PCM (on CDs or DVDs)
<
Dolby Digital
<
MPEG multi channel (not available in
HDMI)
<
DTS multi channel
Use this setting if you have a receiver/decoder
that supports Dolby Digital.
DVD sample rate
This needs to be set correctly if you are using an
external audio decoder, receiver or D-A converter
connected to the S/PDIF digital audio output.
Max 96K Choose this option if your external audio
decoder is able to process digital audio with
a sample rate of up to 96kHz, or if you are
not using the digital audio outputs. This is the
maximum sample rate present on DVD-video
discs.
Max 48K Choose this option if your external audio
decoder is unable to process digital audio
with a sample rate of up to 96kHz. This is
the normal setting for this menu item.
Note that this setting is relevant only to the output
from DVD-video discs.
Audio compression
Allows compression of the audio stream to be
turned on or off, where ‘On’ is intended for ‘late night’
listening when large volume changes are not desirable.
Turning compression on decreases the volume of the
louder passages, i.e., the total dynamic range of the
audio is reduced. Normally, however, this item is set to
‘Off’, to disable compression.
This menu option only affects analogue output: the
coaxial and optical digital audio outputs are never
affected by this menu setting.
Compression is available only on Dolby Digital
recordings.
VCD mode
Some VCD discs are produced with a dual-mono
soundtrack. This means that the left audio channel
carries one language, the right another. In this case it
can be useful to listen to just one of the channels.
Stereo The default setting. Choose this option to play
the VCD with both channels audible.
Left
channel
only
Choose this option to play the VCD with only
the left channel audible. The audio from the
left channel will be routed to both the left and
right speakers.
Right
channel
only
Choose this option to play the VCD with only
the right channel audible. The audio from the
right channel will be routed to both the left and
right speakers.
This setting applies only to VCD discs.
Zone 2/Rec out
This controls the output sent to the ZONE 2/REC OUT
rear panel connectors. If a second room system is
used (‘Zone 2’), the output level may be controlled
independently, fixed at a certain volume level, or set at
line level.
Zone 2
variable
Output level varies with the volume control
for the second room
Zone 2
fixed
Output level is fixed at the level last selected
in ‘Zone 2 variable’ mode.
Record out
This option takes the output before the
volume control and may be connected to a
recording device. Never use this setting
with a power amplifier.
