When playing LD recorded in Dolby Digital
When connecting a DVD/LD player or LD player using
the AC-3 RF output, a commercially available RF
demodulator (RFD-1) is required. The RF demodulator
changes the RF signal to a digital signal which is then
processed by the receiver through the digital input
jacks. For more details, refer to the instruction manual
supplied with the RFD-1.
The factory setting for each of the digital inputs is
described below.
