When the Shift command bank is activated, pressing the remote control DTS button while a DTS(-ES) input source is present toggles the ES DECODING parameter, cycling through the AUTO, ON and OFF settings.

Note:

The DTS(-ES) STATUS menu includes the SB level meter when:

•The ES DECODING parameter is set to ON and a 5.1-channel DTS source is present.

•The ES DECODING parameter is set to AUTO and a 5.1-chan- nel matrix-encoded or 6.1-channel discrete-encoded DTS-ES source is present.

EX DECODING AUTO, ON, OFF

Controls the Dolby Digital Surround EX decoding feature, which can be used to extract a rear channel from 5.1-channel Dolby Digi- tal sources.

•When set to ON, Dolby Digital Surround EX decoding is engaged for all 5.1-channel Dolby Digital sources.

•When set to OFF, Dolby Digital Surround EX decoding is not engaged for all 5.1-channel Dolby Digital sources.

•When set to AUTO, Dolby Digital Surround EX decoding is engaged when a flagged 5.1-channel Dolby Digital source recorded with Surround EX is detected. Dolby Digital Sur- round EX decoding is not engaged when a non-flagged 5.1- channel Dolby Digital source recorded with or without Sur- round EX is detected.

•The AV1 cannot automatically detect Dolby Digital Surround EX encoding in non-flagged 5.1-channel Dolby Digital sources. A non-flagged source does not include information in the input signal that identifies Dolby Digital Surround EX encoding.

The DOLBY DIGITAL EX listening mode is available when Dolby Digital Surround EX decoding is engaged. The DOLBY DIGITAL lis- tening mode is available when Dolby Digital Surround EX decoding is not engaged. Dolby Digital Surround EX decoding cannot be engaged unless both side and rear speakers are present. Refer to page 5-19 for more information.

When the Shift command bank is activated, pressing the remote control DOLBY button while a 5.1-channel Dolby Digital input source is present activates the DOLBY DIGITAL EX or DOLBY DIGI- TAL listening mode. Subsequent presses toggle the EX DECODING parameter, cycling through the AUTO, ON and OFF settings.

FRONT STEERING OFF, MSURR, MUSIC, FILM

When set to MUSIC, moderate front steering is applied. When set to MSURR, minimum front steering is applied. When set to OFF, no front steering is applied. It is recommended that you set this parameter to FILM for film and broadcast sources and to MUSIC, MSURR or OFF for music sources.
