Using the DVR+ ::
Setting Your Digital Audio Options
Many programs and events, especially those broadcast in high-definition video, also feature multiple
audio channels to enhance the enjoyment in your home theater. The following options on your DVR+
receiver can be used with other compatible equipment:
• HDMI – Can be set to Stereo only if you are not connecting the HDMI output of your DVR+
receiver to a device capable of multi-channel surround sound. The default setting for this output is
Auto Stereo/Surround, which will output the best audio option present in the broadcast.
• Optical Digital Audio – Can be set to Stereo only if you are not connecting the digital audio
output of your DVR+ receiver to a device capable of surround sound. The default setting for this
output is Multi-channel, which is supported by most equipment that will accept optical digital
audio input(s).
• Midnight Mode – Helps keep you from disturbing others in your home by compressing the
dynamic range (the difference between the loudest and quietest sounds) of the digital audio
output signal. The default setting for this mode is On.
Getting Program Information
When you change channels on your DVR+, a banner displays across the bottom of the screen
for a few seconds showing details about the current channel and programming. With this banner
displayed, you can press the arrow buttons (Up, Down, Left, and Right) on the remote control to
browse current or future program information for the next-highest or lowest channel, or display the
current and future programs scheduled on the current channel.
When watching live TV, pressing INFO on the remote displays an info banner at the bottom of the
screen. Pressing INFO again closes the banner. When you highlight any program in the program
guide and press INFO, a pop-up with more detailed information displays about the highlighted
program for five seconds. Pressing INFO again before five seconds closes the pop-up.
You can also press Record on the remote to help set a new recording or stop a recording
in progress.
Adjusting Languages and Closed Captions
The AUDIO CC button on the remote control is a dedicated button to help you set preferences for
your audio language and closed captions.
While watching live TV or a recording, pressing AUDIO CC displays the Audio / Closed Captions
screen, which allows you to:
• Select the language for your audio. Some available languages may not be broadcast in stereo;
changing digital audio options cannot override this status.
• Toggle closed captions (on or off), select a caption service, and format caption appearance.
