The Cinema Rhapsody is also prepared to decode other AC-3 for-
mats, most of which are intended for AC-3 broadcast with HDTV by
way of off-air or satellite reception. As these are future decoding
formats, ADA strongly suggests not altering these settings.
However, should you need to alter these settings, the following de-
scribes the procedure to do so.
1
While in the Pro Setup mode, turn the MODE knob until the
display reads INPUT FORMAT and then press the MODE
knob. The display will read INPUT FORMAT on the top
line and the second line will read SIF S/PDIF (or some
other number if you have already altered the factory de-
faults).
2
Turn the MODE knob to alter between the SIF S/PDIF and
SIF NONFORM (non-formatted) settings. Since other in-
puts can also have their own Input Format setting, pro-
vided they are set to AC-3 modes, you can turn the IN-
PUT knob to see the settings on other inputs and con-
tinue to alter their Input Format.
3
To exit the INPUT FORMAT Setup Mode without leaving the
Pro Setup Mode, press the MODE knob. If you wish to
exit the Setup Mode completely, turn any of the knobs
other than MODE or INPUT.
Pro Setup - Input Format
The Cinema Rhapsody has the
ability to alter its Input Format
which only applies to AC-3
decoding. The standard Input
Format for Dolby AC-3
decoding from a laser disc or
DVD is “SIF S/PDIF”. The
current alternate setting is
“SIF NONFORM” and is for
future AC-3 decoding options
that may come with HDTV off-
air or satellite broadcasts.
At this time, ADA strongly
suggests not altering the
Input Format.
