The table below indicates the conditions in which THX Surround EX and THX Ultra2 decoding are engaged.

THX Surround EX decoding is engaged when the SUR- ROUND EX parameter is set to ON, or the SURROUND EX parameter is set to AUTO and a flagged 5.1-channel Dolby Digital source with THX Surround EX encoding is detected.

THX Ultra2 decoding is engaged when the SURROUND EX parameter is set to OFF, or the SURROUND EX parameter is set to AUTO and a non-flagged 5.1-channel Dolby Digital source with or without THX Surround EX encoding is detected.

Listening mode name differs depending on the encoding present in the input source, the SURROUND EX parameter setting and the speaker setup.

The THX ULTRA2 listening mode is available when THX Ultra2 decoding is engaged.

The THX SurEX listening mode is available when THX Sur- round EX decoding is engaged.

The THX listening mode is available when neither THX Ultra2 nor Surround EX decoding is engaged.

The THX ULTRA2 and THX SurEX listening modes cannot be activated unless side and rear speakers are present.

Note:

The AV1 cannot automatically detect THX Surround EX encoding in non-flagged 5.1-channel Dolby Digital sources. A no flagged source does not include information in the input signal that iden- tifies THX Surround EX encoding.
