■ About DTS signals
When DTS program material ends and the DTS | — |
bitstream stops, the AV receiver remains in DTS |
|
listening mode and the DTS indicator remains on. |
|
This is to prevent noise when you use the pause, fast |
|
forward, or fast reverse function on your player. If |
|
you switch your player from DTS to PCM, because |
|
the AV receiver does not switch formats |
|
immediately, you may not hear any sound, in which |
|
case you should stop your player for about three |
|
seconds, and then resume playback. |
|
With some CD and LD players, you won’t be able to — playback DTS material properly even though your player is connected to a digital input on the AV receiver. This is usually because the DTS bitstream has been processed (e.g., output level, sampling rate,
or frequency response changed) and the AV receiver doesn’t recognize it as a genuine DTS signal. In such cases, you may hear noise.
