Sub Stereo – If Le/Right+Sub or Sat+Sub is selected in

Stereo Mode above, this setting adjusts the level of the

subwoofer when the source is two channel stereo.

Brightness – Sets the video brightness for this input.

is setting can be used to compensate for an overly

dark or bright source picture on this input when

compared with other video sources.

Contrast – Sets the video contrast for this input. is

setting can be used to compensate for too much or too

little contrast in the source picture on this input when

compared with other video sources.

Colour – Sets the video colour saturation for this input.

is setting can be used to compensate for too much or

too little colour in the source picture on this input when

compared with other video sources.

Picture Mode – Sets how the video processor in the

AVR500/AVR600/AV888 interprets the video on this

input. Normally the video processor automatically

detects the original source type and correctly sets either

Video mode or Film mode processing. In the unlikely

event that the video processor misinterprets the video

type, resulting in subtle picture artefacts, the video

processor can be manually forced into Video mode or

Film mode. is function should normally be set to

Auto.

Edge Enhancement – Sharpens the picture from a

source on this input.

Mosquito N.R. – Removes haziness that sometimes appears

around objects in a picture from a source on this input.

Noise Reduction – Removes random noise within the

picture from a source on this input.

Block N.R. – Removes block artefacts in overly

compressed digital video from a source on this input.

Component Mode – Congures the current three-wire

high quality analogue video input for component (YUV)

video signals or RGB video signals. It is important

to match the setting to the incoming video format

otherwise the colours will be incorrect and the picture

may be unstable.

Options are Normal, RGsB and RGB+Sync.

< Normal: (default) the three-wire input is congured

for normal Component (YUV / YPbPr) analogue

video.

< RGsB: the three-wire input is congured for RGB

analogue video with video ‘sync-on-green’.

< RGB+Sync: the three wire input is congured for

RGB analogue video, with the video sync signal on

the composite input for the current named source.

You should typically select RGB+Sync if you are using

a standard SCART to 4-wire phono breakout cable to

connect an RGB SCART source.

Note that if RGB+Sync is selected, the S-Video and

Composite inputs cannot be selected as video inputs for

the current source.

Audio Source – Selects the particular connection type

for each input. e default is HDMI; this setting must be

changed if another connection is used.

Select from the list the audio type you are using on this

source.

NOTE: you may experience some audio transients when

changing this setting. As a precaution, we recommend

that you reduce the volume level rst.

HDMI: the unit is forced to use the HDMI audio

input for this source.

Digital: the unit is forced to use the optical (TOSLINK)

or coaxial (S/PDIF) digital audio input for this source

Analogue: the unit is forced to use the analogue

audio input for this source.

Video Source – Selects the video signal connection for

this source. e default is HDMI; this setting must be

changed if another connection is used.

< HDMI: the unit is forced to use the

HDMI video

input for this source.

< Component: the unit is forced to use the

COMPONENT/RGB video input for this source.

< S-Video: the unit is forced to use the

SVIDEO input

for this source.

< Composite: the unit is forced to use the

COMPOSITE

video input for this source.

General Setup

General information and system controls.

Source Input – (Information only) e currently

selected input to which the settings below relate.

Incoming Format – (Information only) e format

of the digital audio stream connected to this input, if

present.

Incoming Sample Rate – (Information only) e

sample rate of the digital audio stream connected to this

input, if present.

Incoming Bit Rate – (Information only) e bit rate

of the digital audio stream connected to this input, if

present.

Dialnorm – (Information only) If a Dolby Digital audio

stream is connected to this input, this is the Dialogue

Normalisation setting requested by the stream.

Video Input – e currently selected video input. For

inputs that have video connections (e.g.

SAT, PVR etc),

audio and video inputs normally switch over together.

However, here you can temporarily select a dierent

video source for the current audio source. is feature

may be useful, for example, if you are watching a sports

game on satellite but on this occasion wish to listen to

the commentary on the radio instead. is temporary

override is reset when the input source is changed so

that the Video Input follows the Audio Input setting (or

the setting in the Video Inputs menu, if applicable).

Audio Compression – Allows selection of compression

which is ideal for late night listening. e compression

eect increases the volume of the quiet passages

and decreases the volume of the louder passages.

Compression only applies to some Dolby Digital and

DTS soundtracks that support this function.

< O: (default) no audio compression is applied.

< On: Audio compression is applied whenever a

soundtrack supporting compression is received.

< On / Auto: As for On above, except for Dolby

TrueHD soundtracks which support an additional

Auto on/o setting

is setting applies to all inputs when a relevant digital

audio stream is detected. It is stored in memory and

recalled each time the unit is powered up.

Balance – To alter the sound balance temporarily

between front le and right speakers. You can alter

the sound stage to either the le or the right by up to

6dB. Note that it is not possible to shi the audio signal

completely over to one channel. is function resets to

equal le/right balance when the input is changed.

PLII Dimension –

PLII Centre Width –

PLII Panorama –

ese allow the adjustment of the sound eld for Dolby

Pro Logic II Music mode decoding of two-channel

sources. ese setting apply to all inputs when PLII or

PLIIx Music decoding is selected. e settings are stored

in memory and recalled each time PLII or PLIIx Music

mode is selected.

< Dimension: Allows the user gradually to adjust the

sound eld either towards the front or towards the

rear. Settings range from -3 to +3. We recommend

Dimension is set to 0 for normal use.

< Centre Width: Controls the centre image width.

With Pro Logic decoding, dominant centre signals

come only from the centre speaker. If no centre

speaker is present, the decoder splits the centre

signal equally to the le and right speakers to create

a ‘phantom’ centre image. e Centre Width control

allows variable adjustment of the centre image so

it may be heard only from the centre speaker; only

from the le/right speakers as a phantom image; or

from all three front speakers to varying degrees. We

recommend Centre Width is set to 3 for normal use.

< Panorama: Extends the front centre image to

include the surround speakers for an exciting ‘wrap-

around’ eect with side-wall imaging.

Digital Output Freq. – Sets the sampling frequency of

the audio Analogue-to-Digital converter. is setting

applies to all inputs when analogue audio is being

processed (i.e. not Stereo Direct mode). It is stored in

memory and recalled each time the unit is powered up.

Volume Adjustment – Sets the step size of the volume

control.

< Normal: (default) volume control is in 1dB steps

< Fine: volume control is in 0.5dB steps

Maximum Volume – Limits the maximum volume

setting the system can be turned up to in the main zone.

is is a useful feature to prevent accidental overdriving

of low power-handling speakers (for example). It is

stored in memory and recalled each time the unit is

powered up.

Max On Volume – Limits the maximum volume the

system operates in the main zone when it is switched

on or comes out of Standby. e system comes on at

this stored volume setting if the last used (possibly very

loud) volume exceeds this value. It is stored in memory

and recalled each time the unit is powered up.

Audio In iPod – If you have an iPod connected to the

AVR500/AVR600/AV888 using an Arcam rDock or

rLead, this control allows you to set which audio input

is used.
