Input mode selection function

Different input modes can be selected for the different input sources. The selected input modes for the separate input sources are stored in the memory.

qAUTO (All auto mode)

In this mode, the types of signals being input to the digital and analog input jacks for the selected input source are detected and the program in the this unit’s surround decoder is selected automatically upon playback. This mode can be selected for all input sources other than TUNER.

The presence or absence of digital signals is detected, the signals input to the digital input jacks are identified and decoding and playback are performed automatically in DTS, Dolby Digital or PCM (2 channel stereo) format. If no digital signal is being input, the analog input jacks are selected.

Use this mode to play Dolby Digital signals.

wPCM (exclusive PCM signal playback mode)

Decoding and playback are only performed when PCM signals are being input.

Note that noise may be generated when using this mode to play signals other than PCM signals.

eDTS (exclusive DTS signal playback mode)

Decoding and playback are only performed when DTS signals are being input.

rANALOG (exclusive analog audio signal playback mode)

The signals input to the analog input jacks are decoded and played.

tEXT. IN (external decoder input jack selection mode)

The signals being input to the external decoder input jacks are played without passing through the surround circuitry.

NOTE:

•Note that noise will be output when CDs or LDs recorded in DTS format are played in the “PCM” (exclusive PCM signal playback) or “ANALOG” (exclusive analog audio signal playback) mode. Select the AUTO or DTS (exclusive DTS signal playback) mode when playing signals recorded in DTS from a laser disc player.

Notes on playing a source encoded with DTS

•Noise may be generated at the beginning of playback and while searching during DTS playback in the AUTO mode. If so, play in the DTS mode.

•In some rare cases the noise may be generated when you preform the operation to stop playback of a DTS-CD or DTS-LD.
