SURROUND SOUND DECODING DIGITAL INPUTS (HDMI and Digital Optical) This soundbar is capable of detecting and automatically decoding multi-channel audio formats, such as those found on DVD and Blu-ray movies. When utilizing a digital connection, the soundbar can process the following formats: Dolby® Digital, DTS Digital Surround™, and digital stereo. ANALOG INPUT (RCA) Digitally encoded sound information cannot be transmitted to an analog input. This connection method is adequate for most devices that only offer two channels of output (such as VCRs, CD players, older game consoles, or portable media player docks). Although most surround sound capable devices, such as DVD and Blu-ray players, offer both analog and digital connections, the digital connection should always be employed. If a source device is connected via an analog left/right RCA connection, the 5.1-channel encoded audio content will not be sent to the soundbar. 30
