Digital Input Signal Formats

The following table shows the display indicator for each
digital signal format.
Format
Dolby Digital
DTS
PCM
Normally, the AV receiver detects the signal format auto-
matically. However, if you experience either of the fol-
lowing issues when playing PCM or DTS material, you
can specify the signal format as either PCM or DTS:
• If the beginnings of tracks from a PCM source are cut
off, try the PCM setting.
• If noise is produced when fast forwarding or reversing
a DTS CD, try the DTS setting.

PCM: Only PCM format input signals will be
heard. If the input signal is not PCM, the PCM
indicator will flash and there will be no sound.
DTS: Only DTS format input signals will be
heard. If the input signal is not DTS, the DTS
indicator will flash and there will be no sound.
Auto (default): The format is detected automati-
cally. If no digital input signal is present, the
corresponding analog input is used instead.

Correcting Sound and Picture Sync

When using progressive scanning on your DVD player,
you may find that the picture and sound are out of sync.
With this setting, you can correct this by delaying the
audio signals. You can set it from 0 to 100 milliseconds
(ms) in 20 millisecond steps.
