Setting the Incoming Digital Signal (Fixed
Mode)
■
Fixed Mode
`
Off
:
The format is detected automatically. If no digital
input signal is present, the corresponding analog
input is used instead.
`
PCM
:
Only 2-channel PCM format input signals will be
heard. If the input signal is not PCM, the
PCM
indicator will flash and noise may also be
produced.
`
DTS
:
Only DTS (but not DTS-HD) format input signals
will be heard. If the input signal is not DTS, the
dts
indicator will flash and there will be no
sound.
When “
HDMI
”, “
COAXIAL
” or “
OPTICAL
” is selected
in the “
Audio Selector
” setting, you can then specify
the signal type in “
Fixed Mode
”.
Normally, the AV receiver detects the signal format
automatically. However, if you experience either of
the following issues when playing PCM or DTS
material, you can manually set the signal format to
PCM or DTS.
• If the beginnings of tracks from a PCM source are
cut off, try setting the format to PCM.
• If noise is produced when fast forwarding or
reversing a DTS CD, try setting the format to DTS.
Note
• The setting will be reset to “
Off
” when you change the
setting in “
Audio Selector
”.
You can assign a default listening mode to each input
source that will be selected automatically when you
select each input source. For example, you can set
the default listening mode to be used with Dolby
Digital input signals. You can select other listening
modes during playback, but the mode specified here
will be resumed once the AV receiver has been set to
standby.
