Multichannel Setup Sub-Menu (When Net Audio Is Not Selected As The Input Source) - Integra DTR-8.3 Instruction Manual

Input Setup
b. Digital Format
Sets the digital signal type to which priority is given during signal
detection at the selected digital terminal.
The default setting is "All." If "----" is selected for this input source
at the Digital Input setting, then this setting will not appear.
Although you can use this default setting as is, you may change it as
desired depending on the input signal format or if you know that you
will always be listening to a certain input signal format from a
particular input source.
All: Select for automatic detection of the input signal format.
The input signal format (Dolby Digital, DTS, PCM or Analog)
used by the selected input source is detected automatically to
execute the required decoding process.
DTS: Select for DTS signal processing. The decoding process is
executed only when DTS signals are input.
PCM: Select for PCM signal processing. The decoding process
is executed only when PCM signals are input.
Notes:
• If "All" is selected and a compact disc or LD is fast-forwarded
during playback, decoded PCM signals may produce a skipping
sound. In such cases, change the setting to "PCM."
• If a DTS signal is not input when "DTS" is selected, the DTR-
8.3 will not automatically switch to analog output even though
"Auto" is selected with the AUDIO SELECTOR button.
Notes on DTS:
• If you play a DTS-formatted CD or LD when the "PCM" setting
is selected on the DTR-8.3, the DTS encoded signal will not be
decoded and noise will be output. This noise could damage the
amplifier and speakers. Therefore, be sure to select "All" or
"DTS" and use the digital input jacks (OPTICAL or COAXIAL)
to connect the DTS source.
• If you play a DTS-formatted CD or LD when "All" is selected,
you may hear a noise for a short while until the DTS decoder
recognizes the DTS-encoded signal and starts operating. This is
not a malfunction.
• If you press the pause or skip button on the player while playing
a DTS source, a short noise may be heard. This is not a
malfunction. In such cases, try playing the source in the "DTS"
selected.
• The DTS indicator on the DTR-8.3 lights while a DTS source is
played. When playback finishes and the DTS signal
transmission stops, the DTR-8.3 remains in DTS mode and the
DTS indicator remains lit. This prevents noise when you operate
the pause or skip button on the player. Therefore, if the source is
immediately switched from DTS to PCM, the PCM signal may
not be played. In this case, stop the playback of the source on the
player for about three seconds and then resume playback.
• You may not be able to play some DTS source signals from
certain CD players and LD players even when you connect the
player to the DTR-8.3 digitally. This is because the digital signal
has been processed (such as the output level, sampling
frequency, or frequency response) and the DTR-8.3 cannot
recognize the signal as DTS data. Therefore you may hear noise
when you play a DTS source while processing the signal.
• The outputs for the VIDEO 1 OUT, VIDEO 2 OUT, TAPE
OUT, and ZONE 2 OUT output analog audio signals. Do not
record from CDs or LDs that support DTS using these outputs. If
you do, the DTS-encoded signal will be recorded as noise.

2-2. Multichannel Setup Sub-menu (When NET
AUDIO is not selected as the input source)
When any input source other than NET AUDIO is selected, this sub-
menu appears and allows you to set the multichannel input setting.
The setting in this sub-menu is normally set to "No," and only needs
to be changed to "Yes" if a DVD player, MPEG decoder, or other
component that has a multi channel port is connected to the MULTI
CHANNEL INPUT port for 5.1-channel, 6.1-channel, or 7.1-
channel audio. For example, if a DVD player is connected to the
MULTI CHANNEL INPUT port, then select DVD at the front panel
as the input source, bring up this sub-menu, and select "Yes" for the
Multichannel setting. You can only select Multichannel with the
AUDIO SELECTOR button when "Yes" is selected here.
