(page 56) to confirm which language the code

represents. When the same language is displayed two or more times, the BD/DVD

VIDEO is recorded in multiple audio formats.

(pages 17,44), you can receive a Dolby Digital signal

via an HDMI cable.

Press AUDIO repeatedly until the desired signal appears in the front panel display.
