Using SRS® TruSurround HD™ Inputs and Outputs Using SRS® TruSurround HD™ SRS® TruSurround HD™ delivers the excitement of surround sound and enhanced movie dialog without the need for rear speakers. In addition, it adds richness and dimension to stereo sources like music and Internet video. In order to experience the surround sound properly, it is important to confi rm you have the proper setup on your PC. This section will guide you through the process of making sure you have the necessary setup to enjoy the Z Cinéma in surround sound mode. 1. Make sure the content you are listening to was recorded in surround sound For movies, surround sound is typically recorded using Dolby® Digital and/or DTS®. If you see one of these two logos on your DVD, that means there a surround sound recording on your disc. Most music is not recorded in surround (it is typically recorded in stereo), but you may have surround sound on a DVD Audio disc or a SACD disc. Finally, many games support surround sound via the Windows® operating system. Check with the game manufacturer to see if the game has surround sound available. 2. Make sure the application you are using supports surround sound Every application supports surround sound differently, so there is no common instruction for this process. For watching DVD movies in surround sound, make sure that your DVD software has a Dolby® Digital or DTS® decoder/plugin installed (these decoders typically do not come pre-installed with the software, so you may have to upgrade your DVD player application to unlock these features). 3. Make sure that surround sound is enabled inside the application Once you have a surround sound decoder installed, make sure that the audio settings for your DVD software are set to 5.1 channel surround sound. For games that support surround sound, make sure that the audio is set to 5.1 channel surround sound from within the game settings menus. 4. Make sure the DVD is playing the surround sound recording Some DVD movies require you to select a surround sound track from within the DVD menu. To access these setup menus, insert the DVD movie and navigate to the main menu. Look for a settings menu or an audio menu. Select Dolby® Digital, DTS® or whatever surround sound capability you have within your DVD player software. The same steps apply to watching DVD movies within Windows® Media Center. By default, Windows® Media Center does not ship with a surround sound decoder, so you may need to purchase a separate decoder that works with Media Center.

Some common troubleshooting questions: SRS® TruSurround HD™ cannot be turned on while using the auxiliary input. • SRS® TruSurround HD™ is not available via the auxiliary input. To use SRS® TruSurround HD™, switch to the USB input and make sure it is turned on. I’ve followed all the steps outlined in this guide for setting up SRS® TruSurround HD™, but I still can’t hear surround sound. What else can I try? • The operating system may not have automatically recognized the Z Cinéma as a surround sound device. In Windows® XP, open the “Sounds and Audio Devices” control panel. Under “Speaker Settings,” click “Advanced…”. Make sure that “5.1 Surround Sound Speakers” is selected from the “Speaker setup” drop down menu and click OK. In Windows Vista®, open the Sound Devices control panel and double-click on the Z Cinéma Speaker system. Make sure the SRS® Enhancement tab appears at the top of the window. If this does not appear, you may need to re-install the Logitech ® Z Cinéma Software. A button does not seem to do anything when I press it. • It’s possible that the feature is not available in the active application. See the table above for a list of supported software applications for each feature. I don’t have a DVD software application that includes a surround sound decoder. Where can I get one? • There are many third-party DVD player applications that include surround sound decoding. For a list of decoders that work with Windows® XP or Windows Vista®, check with Microsoft at www.microsoft.com Supported Multimedia Applications Select multimedia applications work with the Z Cinéma features mentioned in this guide.
