■ About DTS signals

When DTS program material ends and the DTS	—
bitstream stops, the AV receiver remains in DTS
listening mode and the DTS indicator remains on.
This is to prevent noise when you use the pause, fast
forward, or fast reverse function on your player. If
you switch your player from DTS to PCM, because
the AV receiver does not switch formats
immediately, you may not hear any sound, in which
case you should stop your player for about three
seconds, and then resume playback.
