The possible digital inputs that can be assigned are: DVD/LD, TV/SAT, VCR1, VCR2, CD, CD-R, MD.

If you assign a digital input to a certain function (for example DVD/LD) then any digital inputs previously assigned to that function will automatically be set to OFF. This is because one function cannot be assigned to two different places.
