IntelliVolume

With IntelliVolume, you can set the input level for each input selector individually. This is useful if one of your source components is louder or quieter than the others. Use the Left and Right [e]/[r] buttons to set the level. If a component is noticeably louder than the others, use the Left [e] button to reduce its input level. If it’s notice- ably quieter, use the Right [r] button to increase its input level. The input level can be adjusted from −12 dB to +12 dB in 1 dB steps.

Note:

IntelliVolume does not apply for Zone 2.

A/V Sync

When using your DVD player’s progressive scanning function, you may find that the picture and sound are out of sync. With the A/V Sync setting, you can correct this by applying a delay to the audio signal.

(TX-SR507)

The delay can be set from 0 to 100 milliseconds (msec) in 20 millisecond steps.

(TX-SR577)

The delay can be set from 0 to 100 milliseconds (msec) in 10 millisecond steps.

Use the Left and Right [e]/[r] buttons to set the delay. To view the TV picture while setting the delay.

If HDMI Lip Sync is “enabled” (see page 77), and your TV or display supports HDMI Lip Sync, the displayed delay time will be the A/V Sync delay time. The HDMI Lip Sync delay time is displayed underneath in parentheses.

Note:

A/V Sync is disabled when the Pure Audio listening mode is selected, or when the Direct listening mode is used with an analog input source.
