decoding priority)
Lets you specify the input mode for the digital
signal input to the DIGITAL IN and HDMI IN
jacks.
•DEC. PCM
When signals from the DIGITAL IN jack are
selected, PCM signals are given priority (to
prevent interruption when playback starts).
However, when other signals are input, there
may be no sound, depending on the format.
In this case, set this item to “DEC. AUTO”.
When signals from the HDMI IN jack are
selected, only PCM signals are output from
the connected player. When signals in any
other format are received, set this item to
“DEC. AUTO”.
•DEC. AUTO
Automatically switches the input mode
between DTS, Dolby Digital, or PCM.
