Decoding the input audio signal automatically

In this mode, the receiver automatically detects the type of audio signal being input (Dolby Digital, DTS, standard 2-channel stereo, etc.) and performs the proper decoding if necessary. This mode presents the sound as it was recorded/ encoded, without adding any surround effects. However, if there are no low frequency signals (Dolby Digital LFE, etc.) it will generate a low frequency signal for output to the subwoofer.
