6. HDCD Decoding
To set the audio decoding option for HDCD (High Definition Compatible
Digital) discs. The options are:
On – HDCD is decoded by the 651/751BD. For HDCD discs, this gives
expanded dynamic range and improved audio resolution.
Off – HDCD is treated as regular CD and output as a native bitstream
preserving the hidden encoding. This is useful when the 651/751BD is
connected to an HDCD-capable A/V receiver via a digital audio output
link (Coaxial, Optical, or HDMI) the output is unprocessed so the A/V
receiver can perform HDCD decoding instead.
