Selecting the input signal type

Most of the audio inputs have both analog and digital
jacks. You can select the type of signal to be used in each
case.
The input signal type for the current input is indicated in
the display. With digital signals, the signal type (Dolby
Digital or DTS) also shows in the display.
The default AUTO setting is usually sufficient, letting the
receiver decide the most suitable signal type. However, if
you want to record from the DVR/VCR1 IN/OUT jacks,
then you should set the input signal type to analog.
If you have selected the USB interface or the
multichannel analog inputs as your input source, see
Selecting USB and multichannel analog input channels
below.
