Other problems when using the Auto Surround Setup
If the room environment is not optimal for the Auto Surround Setup (too much background noise, echo off the walls, obstacles blocking the speakers from the microphone) the final settings may be incorrect. Check for household appliances (air conditioner, fridge, fan, etc.), that may be affecting the environment and switch them off if necessary.
Some older TVs may interfere with the operation of the microphone. If this seems to be happening, switch off the TV when doing the Auto Surround Setup.
Checking the settings on your DVD (or other) player
Before continuing, you may want to check the digital audio output settings on your DVD player and digital satellite receiver.

•Check that your DVD player/satellite receiver is set to output Dolby Digital, DTS and 88.2/96kHz PCM (2 channel) audio.
If there is an option for MPEG audio, set this to convert the MPEG audio to PCM.
If you connected the multichannel analog outputs of the player to this receiver, make sure that the player is set to output multichannel analog audio.
Note
•Depending on your DVD player or source discs you may only be able to output analog and stereo digital audio. In this case you need to change the listening mode to SURROUND if you want multichannel surround sound.
