HDMIx (Auto):

This option can be selected when an HDMI input is assigned to an input selector (see page 42). When this option is selected, the relevant HDMI, digital, and analog inputs will be checked for the presence of an audio signal. If signals are present at more than one input, the inputs will be selected in the following order of prior- ity: HDMI, digital, analog.

COAXx (Auto)/OPTx (Auto):

This option can be selected when a dig- ital input is assigned to an input selec- tor (see page 44). When this option is selected, the relevant digital and analog inputs will be checked for the presence of an audio signal. If signals are present at more than one input, the inputs will be selected in the following order of priority: digital, analog. Any audio sig- nals present at the HDMI inputs will not be output.

Analog:

When this option is selected, the signal from the relevant analog audio input is output. Any audio signals present at HDMI or digital inputs will not be output.

Note:

You can select a different option for each input selector.

Digital Input Signal Formats

The digital input signal formats are available only for the input sources that you have assigned a digital input jack; otherwise you will see “Analog” indicated on the screen (see page 44).

Normally, the AV receiver/AV amplifier detects the sig- nal format automatically. However, if you experience either of the following 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.

1Press and hold the AV receiver/AV ampli- fier’s [DIGITAL INPUT] button for about 3 seconds.

2While “Auto” is displayed (about 3 sec- onds), press the [DIGITAL INPUT] button repeatedly to select: PCM, DTS or Auto.

PCM:

Only 2-channel PCM format input signals will be heard. If the input signal is not PCM, the PCM indi- cator will flash and noise may also be produced.

DTS:

Only DTS (but not DTS-HD) format input sig- nals will be heard. If the input signal is not DTS, the DTS indicator will flash and there will be no sound.

Auto (default):

The format is detected automatically. If no digital input signal is present, the corresponding analog input is used instead.
