Playing Your AV Components

—Continued

You can display various information about the current

input source as follows.

The following information can typically be displayed for

input sources.

*If the input signal is analog, no format information is

displayed. If the input signal is PCM, the sampling fre-

quency is displayed. If the input signal is digital but not

PCM, the signal format is displayed. Information is dis-

played for about three seconds, then the previously dis-

played information reappears.

Interpreting Surround Channel Information

A:

The number of front channels (front left, front right,

and center).

B:

The number of surround channels (surround left and

surround right). If there’s a surround back channel

information, this number will be 3.

C:

LFE channel for subwoofer (1 means yes).

The multichannel input is for connecting a component

with individual 5.1-channel analog audio outputs, such

as a DVD player or MPEG decoder.

See “DVD Multichannel Connection” on page 24 for

connection information.

Note that the individual speaker level settings for the

multichannel input are independent of those explained

on page 47.

Notes:

•

While the multichannel input is selected, you can

select only the

Direct

listening mode. If you select the

multichannel input while using another listening

mode, that listening mode is cancelled.

•

While the multichannel input is selected, the Speaker

Conﬁguration settings on page 48 are ignored, and

signals from the multichannel input are fed to the front

left, front right, center, surround left, and surround

right speakers and subwoofer regardless of those set-

tings.
