Using the digital audio selector
You can use the Digital Audio Selector to

tracks). This temporarily overrides the audio track
chosen by the language option under Audio Setup
( “Selecting stereo/SAP broadcasts”).
To use the digital audio selector:

Press p or q to select Audio, and then press t
or u to select the desired service.

Selecting stereo/SAP broadcasts
The multi-channel TV sound (MTS) feature allows
you to output high-fidelity stereo sound. MTS
also can transmit a second audio program (SAP)
containing a second language, music, or other audio
information (when provided by individual stations).
When the TV receives a stereo or SAP broadcast, the
symbol “ ” or word “SAP” appears on-screen when
is pressed. The MTS feature is only available for
analog signals on the ANT/CABLE input.
To listen to stereo sound:
1無
Press and open the Sound menu.
2無
Highlight Audio Setup and press .
3無
In the MTS field, select Stereo.
4無
To save the new settings, highlight Done and press
. To reset the settings to the factory defaults,
highlight Reset and press .
Note:
•
You can typically leave the TV in Stereo
mode because it will automatically output
the type of sound being broadcast (stereo
or monaural).
•
If the stereo sound is noisy, select Mono to
reduce the noise.
To listen to an alternate language on an
ATSC digital station (if available):
Highlight the Language field in step 3 above, and
then press t or u to select the language you prefer.
To listen to a second audio program on an
analog station (if available):
Select SAP in step 3 above.
Note:
•
A second audio program (SAP) can be heard only
on those TV stations that offer it. For example, a
station might broadcast another language as a
second audio program. If you have SAP on, you
will see the current program on the screen but
hear the other language instead of the program’s
normal audio.
•
If you have SAP on and the station you are
watching is not broadcasting a second audio
program, the station’s normal audio will be
output. However, occasionally there is no sound
at all in SAP mode. If this happens, set the MTS
feature to Stereo mode.
