• This function only works with two-channel signals. This operation is
ineffective when 5.1-channel DTS or Dolby Digital signals are input.
• If the setting of REAR FILL is made when REAR MIX is ON, sound is
unchanged in the rear fill setting because REAR MIX is given priority
during 2 channel decoder other than linear PCM.
