INPUT SELECT

 

Controls the interaction of the digital and analog audio input connectors assigned to the current Main Zone input. The INPUT SETUP menu is used to assign one digital and one analog audio input connector for the selected input. The table on page 3-19describes INPUT SELECT parameter settings.

Note:

When the INPUT SELECT parameter is set to AUTO, the RV-8 will not select the assigned analog audio input connector when a valid digital audio input source is present. Some DVD and CD players output digital signals (data) when the player is paused or stopped or when the player is powered on and the disc drawer is empty. When this occurs, the RV-8 automatically selects the assigned digital audio input connector.
