automatic migration

If you have multiple connections defined for a particular source, the PAV/PDSD
will automatically use the highest-priority connection available. For example, if
you have chosen
, followed by
, followed by
AC-3 RF demodulator
digital
for your laserdisc player, the system will first look to the RF input. If it
analog
cannot lock onto a signal there, it will move to the digital input. Lacking a signal
there, it will migrate to the analog input. However, the system will continue to
look for a higher-priority signal and if one becomes available, will go to it auto-
matically. If you have the on screen messages enabled, you will be notified of the
change.
At your option, automatic migration may be turned off (in the Operate menu).
For most people, it is easier to use "forced migration" when they want to see
what a different connection might sound like, as explained below.
On some occasions, you may wish to "force" a migration beyond the usual prior-

forced/manual migration

ity. In our laserdisc case, for example, you might want to compare the sound
quality of
Dolby Digital
to
(digital) Pro Logic
, and to
(analog) Pro Logic
in the
PAV . To do so, simply click the source button again (in this case, laserdisc) for
each forced migration. The system will cycle through all available connections.
Note that when you have done this, you have asked the system to migrate from
one input to the next manually. To restore automatic migration, simply select any
other input button (assuming that
is turned on in the
automatic migration
oper-
).

To create a "simulcast" situation where you are watching the video associated

watching a simulcast

with an A/V source button with the audio associated with an audio-only source
button, simply select the picture you want followed by the sound you want, in
turn. In this way, you can watch a sporting event while listening to the play by
play on the radio (for example).
To return to the usual combination of audio and video from the same source,
simply reselect that A/V source.
