RV-8 Setup
3-21
LEGACY VIDEO A, B
When video played back from a VCR is converted to component
video by the RV-8, the resulting picture quality depends on both the
quality of the VCR playback and the capabilities of the component
display device. The LEGACY VIDEO m enu item has two selectio ns, A
and B. Use the one that gives the best picture for the Combination of
the VCR and display device.
Note:
Some combinations of VCR and display device may not produce a
satisfactory picture with either setting. In such cases, better results may be
achieved by connecting to the di splay de vice via co mposite or S-video.
FORMAT DETECT NORMAL, FAST
Controls how the RV-8 reacts when it detects silence in the digital
audio stream. Digital sour ces typically output a short period of silence
when switching between sources.
When set to NORMAL, the RV-8 will not mute when silence is
detected. This setting is appropriate for most sources.
When set to FAST, the RV-8 will mute when appro ximately 2ms of
continuous digital silence is detected. Once valid audio is received,
the RV-8 will configure its processing and deactivate mu te. This
prevents digital noise from occurring during digital audio signal
changes. For example, when switching from Dolby Digital to DTS.
Use this setting if audible noise occurs during input digital format
changes.
ZONE2 IN DIGITAL, ANLG, DMIX
Controls the interaction of the digital and analog audio input
connectors assigned to the current Zone 2 inputs. The INPUT SETUP
menu can be used to assign one digital and one analog input
connector for the selected input. See page 3-7 for more information.
The table on the next page describes ZONE2 IN parameter settings.
Note
When using DTS-encoded discs, set the ZONE2 IN parameter to DMIX.
When the ZONE2 IN parameter is set to DIGIT AL, the unit recognizes
DTS-encoded discs as audio signals (not data signals) and o utputs
loud digital noise from the ZONE2 analog and digital audio outputs.
For maximum flexibility with Dolby Digital and DTS (-ES) sources:
1. Select a Main Zone DIGITAL IN connector.
2. Set the ZONE2 IN parameter to ANLG.
3. Connect the digital and analog outputs on the DVD playe r to the
corresponding digital and analog inputs on the RV-8.
The unit will use the digital connector for the Main Zone, and the
analog connectors for Zone 2.
