First Time Setup
—Continued
To enjoy Dolby Digital and DTS, you must connect your
DVD player to the AV receiver digitally (coaxial or opti-
cal).
These are the default digital audio input assignments.
You can change the digital audio input assignments if
necessary. For example, if you connect your DVD player
to the OPTICAL 1 DIGITAL IN (OPT1), you must
assign that input to the DVD input selector, as follows.
Note:
Make sure that components connected digitally are con-
figured to output digital audio. Refer to the relevant man-
uals.
If you connect an
-capable Onkyo MiniDisc
recorder, CD recorder, or RI Dock to the TAPE IN/OUT
or CBL/SAT IN jacks, for
to work properly, you
must change this setting.
This setting can only be changed on the AV receiver.
Note:
DOCK can be selected for the TAPE input selector or
CBL/SAT input selector, but not both at the same time.
