    Note

    The Analog Stereo and and SPDIF outputs are only available on certain player models.

    • HDMI: Check this box to enable audio output via the HDMI connector. 
      • Pass through: Supplies the un-decoded audio signal through the HDMI connector. Use this option if the zone audio (for example, AC3 Dolby Digital) is being decoded on an external device.
      • Stereo: Supplies the decoded audio signal through the HDMI connector.
    • SPDIF: Check this box to enable audio output via SPDIF.

  • Audio Mixing: Choose the mixing of the audio output:
    • Stereo: Outputs both left and right audio signals.
