Normally, the AV receiver detects the signal format auto- matically. However, if you experience either of the fol- lowing issues when playing PCM or DTS material, you can specify the signal format as either PCM or DTS:

•If the beginnings of tracks from a PCM source are cut off, try the PCM setting.

•If noise is produced when fast forwarding or reversing a DTS CD, try the DTS setting.

PCM: Only PCM format input sig- nals will be heard. If the input signal is not PCM, the PCM indicator will flash and there will be no sound.

Auto (default): The format is detected automatically. If no digital input signal is present, the corresponding analog input is used instead.

Correcting Sound and Picture Sync

When using progressive scanning on your DVD player, you may find that the picture and sound are out of sync. With this setting, you can correct this by delaying the audio signals. You can set it from 0 to 100 milliseconds (ms) in 20 millisecond steps.
