the input audio signal
(Auto
Decoding)
The auto decoding function automatically
detects the type of audio signal being input
(Dolby Digital, DTS, or standard 2 channel
stereo) and performs the proper decoding if
necessary. This mode presents the sound as
it was recorded/encoded, without adding any
effects (e.g. reverberation).
However, if there are no low frequency
signals (Dolby Digital LFE, etc.), it will
generate a low frequency signal for output to
the subwoofer.
Press AUTO DEC on the receiver or
SOUND FIELD on the remote repeatedly
until “AUTO DECO.(AUTO DECODING)”
appears on the front panel display.
The auto format decode function is
activated.
