AUTO (All auto mode):

In this mode, the types of signals being input to the digital and

detected and the program in the AVR-4306’s surround
decoder is selected automatically upon playback. This mode
can be selected for all input sources other than PHONO and
TUNER.
The presence or absence of digital signals is detected, the
signals input to the digital input terminals are identified and
decoding and playback are performed automatically in DTS,
Dolby Digital or PCM (2 channel stereo) format. If no digital
signal is being input, the analog input terminals are selected.
Use this mode to play Dolby Digital signals.

DTS (exclusive DTS signal playback mode):

Decoding and playback are only performed when DTS signals
are being input.

PCM (exclusive PCM signal playback mode):

Decoding and playback are only performed when PCM signals
are being input.
Note that noise may be generated when using this mode to
