TruSurround technology lets you take advantage of any multichannel format
without having to add extra speakers or equipment. Using two speakers,
TruSurround "virtually" places the individual audio channels where they are
supposed to be, as though you had speakers all around you. To enable
TruSurround, set the SRS TruSurround menu button "On".
Note:
TruSurround and Dolby Digital are mutually exclusive features. TruSurround is
unavailable when the receiver is decoding a Dolby Digital (AC-3) audio track
(Model HAH-SA only) If you want the receiver to automatically decode Dolby
Digital (AC-3) audio when available in selected programming, set the Dolby
Digital menu button "On." If your A/V receiver is Dolby Digital-capable, set
the Digital Output menu button to "Dolby Digital." Highlight and
Dolby Digital Options menu button.
Set the Digital Output menu button for "Dolby Digital" as shown in the figure.
If your A/V receiver cannot decode Dolby Digital audio, use the "PCM"
(two-channel) setting. Use the Optimize "Mono" setting if you connect the
satellite receiver to your TV using coaxial cable without A/V (left/right audio)
cables.
