To enjoy a video source with the Dolby Pro Logic
Surround or Dolby Digital (AC-3) decoded
When you select the program No. 1, 2 or 3, and the input signal
of the source is 2-channel stereo, Dolby Pro Logic Surround is
decoded. When some program is selected and the input signal of the
source is encoded with the Dolby Digital (AC-3), Dolby Digital (AC-3)
is automatically decoded.
* The following indicators on the display panel show you what sound
processing is being made.
* In addition, for the program No. 1, 2 and 3, the name of the program
on the display panel or the monitor screen will change according to
the type of decoding. (See pages 44–45 for details.)
NOTE: If the input signals of source encoded with the Dolby Digital
(AC-3) are in 2-channels only, the sound processing for them is
similar to that for analog or PCM audio signals.
