When a digital source is playing, the receiver will
automatically switch to the proper surround mode
and indicates on the speaker icons on the right-hand
side of the display. (Seediagram)
It is important
to note, however,
that not all Dolby Digital
sources are
encoded
with
the full complement
of five channels plus LFE*. Speaker
icons show how many and which
speaker you have enabled
(See "Fine
Setting
of the Speakers")
and the
letters inside the speaker
icons show which
channel
is
present in the source information.
For example,
the
diagram
shown
means you have all the five speakers
and subwoofer
enabled
and the digital
sources you
played have five channels
plus LFE complemented.
