S/PDIF ? Quick question about Digital out setting for DTS and PCM on DVD player...
Asked this question on another thread but it seems to have gone cold.
When I got my new amp, I was so excited because my old Elite amp did not have DTS. Well imagine my dissapointment when DTS signals showed up as Dolby Pro-Logic.
Well I figured it was the player not the amp since my daughters cheap Diamond DVD player seemed to play DTS fine.
Since I did not have the manual for my Malata N996 anymore I decided to check the "expert" set up section in the set-up menu. under DTS I noticed I had the options in digital out of:
1 original
2 PCM
3 original S/PDIF only
well I set it to original and what do you know? My 814 all of a sudden showed DTS
Unfortunately I had a lot of audio drop outs on different DVDs until I switched to the 3rd setting: original S/PDIF only. however I must admit I don't know what that means.
I figured original should have worked fine. am I wrong? can anyone explain the difference between them?
Am I in the right setting now or should it be on original and I should have the drop out looked into?
what is S/PDIF?
