BASIC PLAYBACK
■ Notes on playing DTS-CD/LDs
• If the digital output data of the player has been processed in any
way, you may not be able to perform DTS decoding even if you
make a digital connection between this unit and the player.
• If you play a source encoded with a DTS signal and set the input
mode to “ANALOG”, this unit may reproduce the noise of an
unprocessed DTS signal. In this case, connect the source to a
digital input jack and set the input mode to “AUTO” or “DTS”.
• If you switch the input mode to “ANALOG” while playing a
source encoded with a DTS signal, this unit reproduces no sound.
• If you play a source encoded with a DTS signal with the input
mode set to “AUTO”, this unit automatically switches to the DTS-
decoding mode (The “t” indicator lights up.) after having
detected the DTS signal. When playback of the DTS source is
completed, the “t” indicator may flash. While this indicator is
flashing, only DTS source can be played. If you want to play a
normal PCM source soon, set the input mode back to “AUTO”.
• If you play a source encoded with a DTS signal with the input
mode set to “AUTO”, the “t” indicator may flash when a
search or skip operation is performed while the DTS source is
playing back with the input mode set to “AUTO”. If this status
continues for longer than 30 seconds, this unit will automatically
switch from “DTS-decoding” mode to PCM digital signal input
mode. The “t” indicator will turn off.
■ Notes on playing an LD source
• For LD software that does not contain a digital soundtrack,
connect the LD player to the analog jacks and set the input mode
to “AUTO” or “ANALOG”.
• If the LD player is transmitting a signal by a non-standard method,
this unit cannot detect the Dolby Digital or DTS signal. In this
case, the decoder automatically switches to PCM or analog.
• Some A/V components such as LD players output different audio
signals through their analog and digital jacks. Change the input
mode as necessary.
• While you are operating the LD player and playing a disc encoded
with a Dolby Digital signal, if you switch from the pause or
chapter forwarding function to normal playback, you may hear the
PCM or analog sound an instant before the Dolby Digital signal is
played. In this case, set the input mode to “D.D.RF”.
