The AVR-1906 has an AUTO signal detection mode that
automatically identifies the type of incoming audio signals, but is
also equipped with a manual mode that can be switched
according to the type of input audio signals.

AUTO (auto mode):
In this mode, the types of signals being input to the digital and
analog input terminals for the selected input source are
detected and the program in the AVR-1906's surround
decoder is selected automatically upon playback. This mode
can be selected for all input sources other than TUNER.
The presence or absence of digital signals is detected, the
signals input to the digital input terminals are identified and
decoding and playback are performed automatically with the
DTS, Dolby Digital or PCM (2 channel stereo) format. If no
digital signal is being input, the analog input terminals are
selected.
Use this mode to play Dolby Digital signals.
PCM (exclusive PCM signal playback mode):
Decoding and playback are only performed when PCM signals
are being input.
Note that noise may be generated when using this mode to
play signals other than PCM signals.
DTS (exclusive DTS signal playback mode):
Decoding and playback are only performed when DTS signals
are being input.
