If you find these on screen messages distracting or intrusive, you may turn them
off simply by moving to the on screen status line of the display preferences
menu, pressing enter to toggle to the change it cursor (
), and turning it off.
You may, of course, turn it back on at any time by repeating the process.
status preferences The AVP2 can display a wealth of information about the source and nature of the
signal being listened to, any signal processing going on, and other details about
the operation of the system. (See Using the Special Menu for more details.) How-
ever, if you find that this display is more than you need or want, you can turn off
individual lines of the display in this submenu.
The information that can be displayed includes:
source info the source(s) providing the sound and picture
signal info the nature of the incoming signal
mode info the surround processing mode being used
rate info the bit rate of the incoming audio signal, or
the output sampling rate of the AVP2s DACs
sub info whether one or more subwoofers is active
volume info the current volume setting
migration info whether automatic or manual migration is active
record info the source selected on the record path

Simply move the cursor to the status preferences line and press enter. Then
move the cursor to whichever item you prefer to leave off, press enter, and turn it
on or off with the volume ± buttons; then press enter again to save your change.
You may, of course, change anything again at a later time by repeating the pro-
cess.
Note that a downward-pointing arrow at the bottom line shown on the screen
indicates that there is more to the menu below the bottom of what can be dis-
played on your screen. You can scroll down to this part of the menu simply by
moving the cursor past the last item shown on the list. Once this is done, there
will be an upward-pointing arrow to indicate that the first line has now moved
off the top of the screen.
display timeout This setting controls the duration of these on screen messages generated by the
AVP2 when you change something. (Remember that you can disable the on
screen display entirely by turning off the on screen status item on the menu.) You
can set it for 2, 3, 4, or 5 seconds, according to your preference.
display of text On screen messages are normally displayed with a black fringe around their
white letters when superimposed on live video signals. This display method is
easy on the eyes and almost always easily read. However, you can opt to have the
on screen messages displayed within a black box to ensure legibility even against
extremely bright backgrounds, when white letters might otherwise be difficult to
read.
display background color The default background color for the screen when lacking a live video signal, or
when in the menu system, is blue. This blue screen serves as a reminder that
your television is on when in fact you may prefer to turn it off.
