Switching ANALOG/DIGITAL Signal Input

This switch moves the input fed to the receiver between analog, digital sources. You need to take special care to switch to the appropriate input, when necessary. For example, the switch would have to be on digital to use DOLBY DIGITAL or DTS surround sound but it would have to be on analog to record from the analog out jacks on the receiver. On the VSX-D908S the default setting is ANALOG.
