playing dvd mono track with 2ch system

Posted by dean_martin on May 18, 2022 at 10:55:24:
I'm using a Myryad MDV300 dvdp in my main 2ch system for playing music performances on dvd via an old Sony Trinitron 20" tv. (Most of the older concerts/live tv performances on dvd look better on the old display.) I use the stereo analog audio outputs to my integrated amp. I've had no problems with audio while playing dvds until I tried Criterion's The Girl Can't Help It which has only a mono soundtrack. I've tried experimenting with the audio settings in the dvd player but I can't get the soundtrack to play. No sound. (Can't hear Little Richard, Gene Vincent, Eddie Cochran, Fats Domino, Julie London, et al.) I feel like I've overlooked something in the settings and the manual doesn't address playing a mono track through the stereo outputs. Maybe there's no way to play the audio track in this setup? Any suggestions?
