•Press SIGNAL SELECT (front panel) to select the input signal corresponding to the source component.

Each press cycles through the options as follows:

				AUTO
				AUTO
						DVD 5.1 ch/
	DIGITAL					DVD 5.1 ch/
	DIGITAL					DVD 7.1 ch
				ANALOG

The AUTO setting automatically switches to DIGITAL if a digital source is detected, other- wise the signal select will be ANALOG.

DVD 5.1ch (VSX-D712) and DVD 7.1ch (VSX- D812) will only appear when DVD/LD is selected.

When set to DIGITAL or AUTO, 2 DIGITAL lights when a Dolby Digital signal is input, and DTS lights when a DTS signal is input.

•This receiver can only play back Dolby Digital, PCM (32kHz–96 kHz) and DTS digital signal formats (however, only the VSX-D812 can decode DTS 96kHz/24 bit signal formats). With other digital signal formats, set to ANALOG.

•You may get digital noise when a LD or CD player compatible with DTS is playing an analog signal. To prevent noise, make the proper digital connections (page 16) and set the signal input to DIGITAL.

•Some DVD players don’t output DTS signals. For more details, refer to the instruction manual supplied with your DVD player.
