Automatically decoding the input audio signal (Auto
Format Decode)
The auto format decode function automatically detects the type of audio signal being input (Dolby Digital, DTS, or standard 2 channel stereo) and performs the proper decoding if necessary. This mode presents the sound as it was recorded/ encoded, without adding any effects (e.g. reverberation).
However, if there are no low frequency signals (Dolby Digital LFE, etc.), it will generate a low frequency signal for output to the sub woofer.
