Digital Input Signal Formats

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 specify the signal format as either PCM or DTS:

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

If noise is produced when fast forwarding or rewind- ing a DTS CD, try the DTS setting.
