Notes

This function does not work in the following cases.

The multi channel input is selected.

DTS-HD signals with a sampling frequency of more than 48 kHz are being received.

Dolby TrueHD signals with a sampling frequency of more than 48 kHz are being received.

“Analog Direct” is being used.

The beginning of the sound stream may be dropped out when Neural-THX®processing is turned on or

off.

Tips

You can identify the encoding format of DVD software, etc., by looking at the logo on the package.

Dolby Pro Logic IIx decoding is effective, when a multi channel signal is input.
