Yamaha RX-V550 User Manual

• When you play DTS-encoded CD/LDs with the input mode set 

to AUTO:
– This unit automatically switches to the DTS decoding mode. 

The unit remains in DTS mode (and the t indicator may 
flash) for up to 30 seconds after playback of the DTS source is 
complete. To manually release the DTS mode, press INPUT 
MODE to reselect AUTO.

– The DTS decoding mode may be released if search or skip 

operations are performed for more than 30 seconds. To 
prevent this, press INPUT MODE to select DTS.

• If the digital output data of the player has been processed in any 

way, you may not be able to perform DTS decoding even if you 
make a digital connection between this unit and the player.

You can display the type, format and sampling frequency 
of the current input signal.
