Playing back in original channels

• To enable 6.1/7.1-channel playback from 5.1-channel sources when surround
back speakers are used, set “Extended Surround” (p.130) in the “Setup” menu to
a setting other than “Off”.
• If “Layout (Surround)” (p.126) in the “Setup” menu is set to “Front”, Virtual
CINEMA FRONT (p.73) works when multi-channel source is played back.

Playing back 2-channel sources in
multichannel (surround decoder)

playback from 2-channel sources. When a multichannel source is
