AUDIO menu parameters

x DEC. PRI. (Digital audio input
decoding priority)
Lets you specify the input mode for the digital
signal input to the DIGITAL IN and HDMI IN
jacks.
• DEC. AUTO
Automatically switches the input mode
between DTS, Dolby Digital, or PCM.
• DEC. PCM
PCM signals are given priority (to prevent
interruption when playback starts).
However, when other signals are input, there
may be no sound depending on the format.
In this case, set to "DEC. AUTO".
When signals from the HDMI IN jack are
selected, only PCM signals are output from
the connected component. When signals
other than PCM signals are received, set this
item to "DEC. AUTO".
Note
When set to "DEC. AUTO" and the sound from the
digital audio jacks (for a CD, etc.) is interrupted
when playback starts, set to "DEC. PCM".
