■BGV (background video) function

The BGV function allows you to combine a video image from a video source with a sound from an audio source. (For example, you can listen to classical music while you are watching a video.)

Select a source from the video group and then select a source from the audio group with the input selector buttons on the remote control. The BGV function does not work if you select the sources with INPUT l/ hon the front panel.

Input Modes and Indications

This unit comes with various input jacks. If your component is connected to more than one type of input jack, you can set the priority of the input signal.

When you turn on the power of this unit, the input mode is set according to “8 INPUT MODE” on the SET MENU (see page 44 for details).

Press INPUT MODE (or the input selector button that you have pressed to select the input source on the remote control) repeatedly until the desired input mode is shown on the front panel display and on the video monitor.

AUTO:In this mode, the input signal is

 

automatically selected in the following

 

order:

 

1) Dolby Digital or DTS signal

 

2) Digital (PCM) signal

 

3) Analog signal
DTS:In this mode, only the digital input signal

 

encoded with DTS is selected even if

 

another signal is input at the same time.
ANALOG:In this mode, only the analog input signal is

 

selected even if a digital signal is input at

 

the same time.

Notes

•If digital signals are input from both the COAXIAL and OPTICAL jacks, the digital signal from the COAXIAL jack is selected.

•When AUTO is selected, this unit automatically determines the type of signal. If this unit detects a Dolby Digital or DTS signal, the decoder automatically switches to the appropriate setting and reproduces 5.1 channel source.

•The sound output may be interrupted for some LD and DVD players in the following situation: The input mode is set to AUTO. A search is performed while playing the disc encoded with Dolby Digital or DTS, and then disc playing is restored. The sound output is interrupted for a moment because the digital signal was selected again.
