Clocking
For the best performance when passing through compressed audio the video and
audio coming into the unit must be locked together, and the system clock locked to
Video or Ext SYNC. When set to Ext SYNC, the audio and video must also be
locked to this source.
Dolby Digital
The audio module can pass through pre-encoded Dolby Digital audio (up to 5.1).
