or DTS-ES decoders.

When a signal flag that can be recognized by this unit is
input, this unit selects the optimum decoder to play back
the signal in 6.1/7.1 channels.
If this unit cannot recognize the flag or no flag is present
in the input signal, it cannot automatically be played in
6.1/7.1 channels.
Decoders
You can select from the following decoders depending on
the format of the source you are playing.

Decoders are not used to create 6.1/7.1 channels.

page 89) is set to “SMLx2” or “LRGx2”.

that can be automatically detected by this unit. When playing

and right channel signals.
