Dynamic Range Compressor Lets you compress the dynamic range of the soundtrack. This may be useful when you want to watch movies at low volumes late at night. Dynamic range compression is possible with Dolby Digital sources only. x Off The dynamic range is not compressed. x Auto The dynamic range is compressed automatically. x On The dynamic range is compressed as intended by the recording engineer. A/V Sync (Synchronizes audio and video output) Lets you delay the output of audio to minimize the time gap between audio output and visual display. This function is useful when you use a large LCD or plasma monitor or a projector. You can set the function for each input independently. x HDMI Auto The time gap between audio output and visual display for the monitor connected via an HDMI connection will be adjusted automatically based on the information for the TV. This feature is available only when the monitor supports the A/V Sync function. x 0 ms - 300 ms You can adjust the delay from 0 ms to 300 ms in 10 ms intervals. Notes • This function does not work in the following case. - "2ch Analog Direct" is being used. • The receiver may play back signals at lower sampling frequency than the actual sampling frequency of the input signals, depending on the audio format. Decode Priority (Digital audio input decoding priority) Lets you specify the input mode for the digital signal input to the DIGITAL IN jacks or HDMI IN jacks. You can set the function for each input independently. x 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 "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 "AUTO." x Auto Automatically switches the input mode between Dolby Digital, DTS, or PCM. Note Even when "Decode Priority" is set to "PCM," the start of the sound may not be output due to signals on the CD being played back. Sound Field Lets you select a sound effect applied to input signals. For details, see "Enjoying Sound Effects" (page 67). You can set the function for each input independently. 98US
