In Reply to: AC3 is different for DVD than for laserdisc posted by John C. - Aussie on October 20, 2000 at 23:32:46:
I would just add to John's excellent post that my past experience with Yamaha HT processors (had a DSP-A3090 before my DC-1) is that you need all the hookups, especially for LD.You need the AC-3 hookup for any LDs with this feature. You need the PCM digital connection for all other digital LDs, including DTS discs (you want to use the digital tracks if the disc has them). Finally, you need the analog hookups for any old LDs you might have that lack digital tracks, or if you wish to listen to an audio commentary track, etc.
Once you have all these hookups done, using it is actually much easier. The processor should auto-detect the LD input in this order: AC-3, PCM/DTS, analog. So with all these hookups, all you need do is press "play" and you're ready to rock & roll (unless for whatever reason you prefer using one of the other tracks, which can easily be selected manually). Ease of use is one of the reasons for the conplicated hookup options:-)

Kevin
