Playing A Dvd With Surround Sound - Pioneer VSX-D2011-G Operating Instructions Manual

memo
• Make sure the room environment follows the
guidelines displayed on the OSD during auto
setup. If the room environment is not optimal
for auto setup (too much ambient noise,
obstacles blocking the speakers from the
microphone, etc.) the final settings may be
incorrect. Check for household appliances (air
conditioner, fridge, fan, etc.) that may be
affecting the environment and switch them off
if necessary.
• Screens will turn off after three minutes and
the receiver will automatically exit from the
setup process.
• If you leave CHECK!! or other error message
on the screen for three minutes, or you
choose CANCEL at anytime during the setup,
the settings made up to that point will be
cleared.
• After completing the AUTO SURROUND
SOUND SETUP, ACOUSTIC CAL EQ ON (ALL
CH ADJUST) is set automatically.
• Some older TVs may interfere with the
operation of the mic. If this is the case turn
the TV off when doing AUTO SURROUND
SOUND SETUP.

To get a more refined sound, make the sound settings in "Expert setup" (see page 95).
If you're having trouble getting surround sound playback look at this Frequently
Asked Questions (FAQ) guide:
Q1: Even though I'm playing a DVD I'm not getting 5.1 channel playback.
A1: Either the DVD is not set for digital output, or the Dolby Digital/DTS output settings are not
correct.
Set the DVD player to output a digital signal and set the Dolby Digital and DTS output properly. If you are
unsure how to do this check the DVD initial setup in the manual that came with your DVD player.
Q2: There is no sound from the subwoofer or it is very low.
A2: There is a good possibility you haven't reached a part of the DVD that has an LFE channel
(which feeds the subwoofer) yet. The LFE channel only appears in selected parts of the
soundtrack. Continue playing and listen for the subwoofer.
If you want to hear more sound from the subwoofer set it to PLUS (see page 40 for more information and
consult the memo on page 41).
