The software is played with the original dynamic range
(factory setting).
STANDARD:
The level recommended by the producer of the software for
household viewing.
MAX:
The maximum allowable compression (recommended for
night viewing).

when using 2-channel analog input.
D
DTS-PCM
If you are playing a DTS CD that contains both DTS and
PCM, but it isn't playing properly, then select "YES".
If this causes noise to occur, return the setting to "NO". (This
setting is effective for each digital source.)
In rare cases, the unit may have trouble recognizing PCM signals and this may cause the beginnings of tracks to be cut off.
