The Auto Format Direct (A.F.D.) mode allows
you to select the decoding mode you want for
your audio sound.
Decoding the input audio
signal automatically
In this mode, the receiver automatically detects
the type of audio signal being input (Dolby
Digital, DTS, standard 2 channel stereo, etc.)
and performs the proper decoding if necessary.
This mode presents the sound as it was recorded/
encoded, without adding any surround effects.
However, if there are no low frequency signals
(Dolby Digital LFE, etc.) it will generate a low
frequency signal for output to the sub woofer.
Press A.F.D. repeatedly to select “A.F.D.
AUTO”.
The receiver automatically detects the type of
audio signal being input and performs the proper
decoding if necessary.
Tip
In most cases, “A.F.D. AUTO” provides the most
appropriate decoding. You may want to use SURR
BACK DECODING (page 35) to match the input
stream to the mode you prefer.
