Technical Specification
The Multi-Format Receiver is not able to decode and output all 5.1 channels
individually as separate channels.
It is possible to output the compressed Dolby Digital stream from the digital audio
output, allowing it to be decoded to 5.1 channels by an external Decoder.
Sampling rate (kHz): 48
Maximum compressed data rate: 640 kbps
Note: Support for Dolby Digital decoding requires approval and licensing from
Dolby.
The Multi-Format Receiver is able to receive audio data in the form of linear PCM
digital audio data, up to 20 bits in resolution, and makes it available for output as
either analogue or digital audio.
