There's no sound with a certain signal format
Check the digital audio output setting on the
connected device. On some game consoles, such as
those that support DVD, the default setting is off.
With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an
audio output format from a menu.
Depending on the input signal, some listening modes
cannot be selected.
■
Can't get 6.1/7.1 playback
If no surround back speakers or front high speakers
are connected, 6.1/7.1 playback is not possible.
You can not always select all of the listening modes,
depending on the number of the speakers connected.
■
The speaker volume cannot be set as required
29
Check to see if a maximum volume has been set.

Noise can be heard
Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with power
cords, speaker cables, and so on may degrade the
audio performance, so don't do it.
36
An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try
repositioning your cables.

About DTS signals
36
When DTS program material ends and the DTS
bitstream stops, the AV receiver remains in DTS
listening mode and the DTS indicator remains on.
This is to prevent noise when you use the pause, fast
29
forward, or fast reverse function on your player. If
you switch your player from DTS to PCM, because
36
the AV receiver does not switch formats
immediately, you may not hear any sound, in which
case you should stop your player for about three
seconds, and then resume playback.
With some CD and LD players, you won't be able to
27–28
playback DTS material properly even though your
player is connected to a digital input on the AV
receiver. This is usually because the DTS bitstream
—
has been processed (e.g., output level, sampling rate,
or frequency response changed) and the AV receiver
doesn't recognize it as a genuine DTS signal. In such
36
cases, you may hear noise.
When playing DTS program material, using the
pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your
—
player may produce a short audible noise. This is not
a malfunction.
36 ■
The beginning of audio received by an HDMI IN
can't be heard
Since it takes longer to identify the format of an
—
HDMI signal than it does for other digital audio
signals, audio output may not start immediately.

Video
27–28
■
There's no picture
Make sure that all video connecting plugs are pushed
in all the way.
Make sure that each video component is properly
—
connected.
If the video source is connected to a component
27–28
video input, you must assign that input to an input
selector, and your TV must be connected to
COMPONENT VIDEO OUT.
If the video source is connected to a composite video
input, your TV must be connected to the
corresponding composite video output.
