Normally, the AV receiver detects the signal format auto- matically. However, if you experience either of the fol- lowing issues when playing PCM or DTS material, you can manually set the signal format to PCM or DTS:

If the beginnings of tracks from a PCM source are cut off, try setting the format to PCM.

If noise is produced when fast forwarding or reversing a DTS CD, try setting the format to DTS.
