To enjoy a video source with the Dolby Pro Logic Surround or Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoded

When you select the program No. 1, 2 or 3, and the input signal of the source is 2-channel stereo, Dolby Pro Logic Surround is decoded. When some program is selected and the input signal of the source is encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3), Dolby Digital (AC-3) is automatically decoded.

•The following indicators on the display panel show you what sound processing is being made.

•In addition, for the program No. 1, 2 and 3, the name of the program on the display panel or the monitor screen will change according to the type of decoding. (See pages 56–57 for details.)

NOTE: If the input signals of source encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3) are in 2-channels only, the sound processing for them is similar to that for analog or PCM audio signals.
