	2) Analog signals
DTS	Selects only digital signals encoded in
	DTS. If no DTS signals are input, no
	sound is output.
ANALOG	Selects only analog signals. If no
	analog signals are input, no sound is
	output.

*If this unit detects a Dolby Digital or DTS signal, the decoder automatically switches to the appropriate sound field program.

Notes

•When the SETTING parameter in INPUT MODE is set to “FIX”, you cannot switch the input mode by pressing INPUT (see page 44).

•When playing a disc encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS on some LD or DVD players, there is a delay in sound output for a moment when playback resumes after a search, because the unit must select the digital signal again.

•When playing an LD source that has not been digitally recorded, the unit may not output any sound for some LD players. In this case, set the input mode to Analog.

•If you attempt to search (forward or backward) during playback of a DTS-encoded disc, noise may occur periodically. If this happens, set the input mode to DTS.

•When you play DTS-encoded CD/LDs with the input mode set to AUTO, this unit automatically switches to the DTS decoding mode. The unit remains in DTS mode (and the t indicator may flash) for a few seconds after playback of the DTS source is complete. To manually release the DTS mode, press INPUT MODE to reselect AUTO.

•If the digital output data of the player has been processed in any way, you may not be able to perform DTS decoding even if you make a digital connection between this unit and the player.

(Format)	Signal format display. When the unit
	cannot detect a digital signal it
	automatically switches to analog input.
in	Number of source channels in the input
	signal. For example, a multi-channel
	soundtrack with 3 front channels, 2
	surround channels and LFE, is
	displayed as “3/2/LFE”.
fs	Sampling frequency. When the unit is
	unable to detect the sampling
	frequency “Unknown” appears.
rate	Bit rate. When the unit is unable to
	detect the bit rate “Unknown” appears.
flg	Flag data encoded with DTS or Dolby
	Digital signals that cue this unit to
	automatically switch decoders.
