INTRODUCTION

What you can do with the GUI menu
By configuring the parameters in the GUI menu of this unit, you can adjust a variety of system settings suited for your
listening environment. The following is a brief description of some of the useful menus you can configure in the GUI
menu. For more detailed information, see “Graphical user interface (GUI) menu” (page 76).
Fine adjusting the speaker settings
In case speaker settings configured by automatic setup
does not match your listening environment, you can
configure them manually.
Setup → Speaker (page 87)
Specifying the muting type
In case you do not want to fully mute audio when you
receive a call while watching your favorite TV program,
you can use this menu to specify the muting level.
Setup → Volume → Muting Type (page 90)
Specifying the initial volume level
By adjusting this parameter, you can automatically control
the initial volume level regardless of the recording level of
the audio source.
Setup → Volume → Initial Volume (page 90)
Adjusting the dynamic range
The dynamic range is the difference between the
minimum and maximum amplitude. The higher the
dynamic range, the more accurate the sound reproduction
for bitstream signals. You can adjust the dynamic range
for speakers and headphones individually. Also, you can
use the adaptive dynamic range control feature to adjust
the dynamic range automatically in conjunction with the
volume level.
Setup → Sound → Dynamic Range (page 90)
Setup → Volume → Adaptive DRC (page 89)
Adjusting the audio and video synchronization
Sometimes, depending on your video source component,
video is delayed relative to audio due to processing
problems. In this case, you need to manually adjust the
audio delay to keep it synchronized with the video. If you
connect the video source component to this unit using an
HDMI connection and your component supports the
LIPSYNC feature, you can adjust the audio/video
synchronization automatically.
Setup → Sound → Lipsync (page 92)
Changing input/output assignment
In case the initial input/output assignments do not
correspond to your needs, you can rearrange them
according to your component to be connected to this unit.
You can also edit the input name to be displayed in the
front panel or in the GUI screen as necessary.
Setup → Option → I/O Assignment (page 98)
Setup → Option → Input Rename (page 98)

Placing speakers
The speaker layout below shows the speaker setting we recommend.
y
• 7.1-channel speaker layout is highly recommended for playback of the high definition digital audio sources (Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD
Master Audio, etc.) with sound field programs.
• We recommend that you add the presence speakers for the effect sounds of the CINEMA DSP sound field program.

■ Speaker types
Front left and right speakers (FL and FR)
The front speakers are used for the main source sound plus
effect sounds. Place these speakers at an equal distance from
the ideal listening position. The distance of each speaker
from each side of the video monitor should be the same.

The presence speakers supplement the sound from the front
speakers with extra ambient effects produced by the sound
field programs (page 40). We recommend that you use the
presence speakers especially for the CINEMA DSP sound
field programs. To use the presence speakers, connect the
speakers to SP1 speaker terminals and then set “Front
Presence” to “Yes” (page 88).
0.5 to 1 m (1 to 3 ft)

0.5 to 1 m (1 to 3 ft)

Surround left and right speakers (SL and SR)
The surround speakers are used for effect and surround
sounds.
For 5.1-channel speaker layout, place these speakers
farther back compared with the placement in the 7.1channel speaker layout.

1.8 m (6 ft)

PREPARATION

Center speaker (C)
The center speaker is for the center channel sounds
(dialog, vocals, etc.). If for some reason it is not practical
to use a center speaker, you can do without it. Best results,
however, are obtained with the full system.

■ Presence left and right speakers (PL and
PR)

Surround back left and right speakers (SBL and
SBR) /Surround back speaker (SB)
The surround back speakers supplement the surround
speakers and provide more realistic front-to-back
transitions.
For 6.1-channel speaker layout, surround back left and
right channel signals are mixed down and output at the
single surround back speaker by configuring the
“Surround Back” setting (page 88).
For 5.1-channel speaker layout, surround back left and
right channel signals are output at the surround left and
right speakers by configuring the “Surround Back” setting
(page 88).
Subwoofer (SW)
The use of a subwoofer with a built-in amplifier, such as
the Yamaha Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System,
is effective not only for reinforcing bass frequencies from
any or all channels, but also for reproducing the high
fidelity sound of the LFE (low-frequency effect) channel
included in bitstreams and multi-channel PCM sources.
The position of the subwoofer is not so critical, because
low bass sounds are not highly directional. But it is better
to place the subwoofer near the front speakers. Turn it
slightly toward the center of the room to reduce wall
reflections.
For other speaker combinations
You can enjoy multi-channel sources with sound field
programs by using a speaker combination other than
the 7.1/6.1/5.1-channel speaker combinations.
Use the automatic setup feature (page 30) or set the
“Speaker” parameters (page 87). to output the surround
sounds at the connected speakers.
English

11 En

Connections

Connecting speakers
Be sure to connect the left channel (L), right channel (R), “+” (red) and “–” (black) properly. If the connections are faulty,
this unit cannot reproduce the input sources accurately.
Caution
• Before connecting the speakers, make sure that this unit is turned off (page 26).
• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or do not let them touch any metal part of this unit. This could
damage this unit and/or speakers.
• Use magnetically shielded speakers. If this type of speaker still creates interference with the monitor, place the
speakers away from the monitor.
• If you are to use 6-ohm speakers, be sure to set “SPEAKER IMP.” to “6Ω MIN” before using this unit (page 26).
You can also use 4-ohm speakers as the front speakers (page 121).

Notes
• A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables running side by side. Cables are colored or shaped differently, perhaps with a
stripe, groove or ridge. Connect the striped (grooved, etc.) cable to the “+” (red) terminals of this unit and your speaker. Connect the
plain cable to the “–” (black) terminals.
• You can connect both surround back and presence speakers to this unit, however they do not output sound simultaneously. This unit
automatically switches the presence speakers and surround back speakers depending on the input sources and the selected sound field
programs.

Spectacle
This program represents the spectacular feeling of large-scale
movie productions. It reproduces a broad theater sound field
matching the cinemascope and wider-screen movies with an
excellent dynamic range from very small to extremely large sound.

Sci-Fi
This program clearly reproduces the finely elaborated sound
design of the latest science fiction and special effects-featuring
movies. You can enjoy a variety of cinematographically created
virtual spaces reproduced with clear separation between dialog,
sound effects and background music.

Adventure
This program is ideal for precisely reproducing the sound design
of action and adventure movies. The sound field restrains
reverberations but puts emphasis on reproducing a powerful space
expanded widely to the left and right. The reproduced depth is also
restrained relatively to ensure the separation between audio
channels and the clarity of the sound.

position

If the dialogues are heard at the lower position of the video
monitor screen, increase the value of “Dialogue Lift”.

■ Basic configuration of sound field
programs
Each sound field program has some parameters defining
the characteristics of the program. To customize the
selected sound field program, adjust “DSP Level” and/or
“Dialogue Lift” first, and then try other parameters.
Adjusting the effect sound level of the sound
field programs (DSP Level)
Sound field programs add effect sounds (DSP effect
sounds) to the original source sound to create sound field
in the listening room. Use the “DSP Level” parameter to
adjust the level of the effect sounds.

Move up to the ideal dialogue position

Choices: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
“0” (initial setting) is the lowest position, and “5” is the
highest position.
Notes
• “Dialogue Lift” is available when “Front Presence” is set to
“Yes” (page 88) and headphones are not connected.
• You cannot move the dialogue position down from the initial
dialogue position.

The DSP effect
sound level is low

The DSP effect sound
level is high

Adjust “DSP Level” as follows:
Increase the value of “DSP Level” when
• the effect sound of the selected sound field
program is too weak.
• you cannot recognize any difference between the
sound field programs.
Decrease the value of “DSP Level” when
• the sound is vague.
• you feel that the additional sound effect is
excessive.
Control range: –6 dB to +3 dB
Adjusting the vertical dialogue position

Liveness. Surround and surround back liveness. Adjusts the reflectivity of the virtual walls in the hall by
changing the rate at which the early reflections decay. The early reflections of a sound source decay much
faster in a room with acoustically absorbent wall surfaces than in one which has highly reflective surfaces. A
room with acoustically absorbent surfaces is referred to as “dead”, while a room with highly reflective
surfaces is referred to as “live”. This parameter lets you adjust the early reflection decay rate and thus the

Using multi-zone configuration
This unit allows you to configure a multi-zone audio system. The multi-zone configuration feature enables you to set this
unit to reproduce separate input sources in the main zone, second zone (Zone 2) and third zone (Zone 3). You can control
this unit from the second or third zone using the supplied remote control.
Only analog signals are sent to the second and third zones. Any source you want to listen to in the second zone and
third zone must be connected to the analog AUDIO IN jacks of this unit.

Connecting the Zone 2 and Zone 3 components
You need the following additional equipment to use the multi-zone functions of this unit:
• An infrared signal receiver in the second zone and/or third zone.
• An infrared signal emitter in the main zone. This emitter transmits the infrared signals from the remote control via the
infrared signal receiver in the second zone and/or third zone to a CD player or a DVD player, etc. in the main zone.
• An amplifier and speakers in the second zone and/or third zone.
• A video monitor for the second room.
y
• Since there are many possible ways to connect and use this unit in a multi-zone configuration, we recommend that you consult with
your nearest authorized Yamaha dealer or service center about the Zone 2 and Zone 3 connections that best meet your requirements.
• Some Yamaha models are able to connect directly to the REMOTE jacks of this unit. If you own these products, you may not need to
use an infrared signal emitter. Up to 6 Yamaha components can be connected as shown below.

GLOSSARY

Glossary
■ Audio and video synchronization
(lip sync)
Lip sync, an abbreviation for lip synchronization, is a technical
term that involves both a problem and a capability of maintaining
audio and video signals synchronized during post-production and
transmission. Whereas the audio and video latency requires
complex end-user adjustments, HDMI version 1.3 incorporates an
automatic audio and video syncing capability that allows devices
to perform this synchronization automatically and accurately
without user interaction.

■ Bi-amplification connection
A bi-amplification connection uses two amplifiers for a speaker.
One amplifier is connected to the woofer section of a loudspeaker
while the other is connected to the combined mid and tweeter
section. With this arrangement each amplifier operates over a
restricted frequency range. This restricted range presents each
amplifier with a much simpler job and each amplifier is less likely
to influence the sound in some way. The internal crossover of the
speaker consists of a LPF (low pass filter) and a HPF (high pass
filter). As its name implies, the LPF passes frequencies below a
cutoff and rejects frequencies above the cutoff frequency.
Likewise, the HPF passes frequencies above its cutoff.

■ Component video signal
With the component video signal system, the video signal is
separated into the Y signal for the luminance and the PB and PR
signals for the chrominance. Color can be reproduced more
faithfully with this system because each of these signals is
independent. The component signal is also called the “color
difference signal” because the luminance signal is subtracted
from the color signal. A monitor with component input jacks is
required in order to output component signals.

■ Composite video signal
With the composite video signal system, the video signal is
composed of three basic elements of a video picture: color,
brightness and synchronization data. A composite video jack on a
video component transmits these three elements combined.

■ Deep Color
Deep Color refers to the use of various color depths in displays,
up from the 24-bit depths in previous versions of the HDMI
specification. This extra bit depth allows HDTVs and other
displays go from millions of colors to billions of colors and
eliminate on-screen color banding for smooth tonal transitions
and subtle gradations between colors. The increased contrast ratio
can represent many times more shades of gray between black and
white. Also Deep Color increases the number of available colors
within the boundaries defined by the RGB or YCbCr color space.

■ Dolby Digital
Dolby Digital is a digital surround sound system that gives you
completely independent multi-channel audio. With 3 front
channels (front L/R and center), and 2 surround stereo channels,
Dolby Digital provides 5 full-range audio channels. With an
additional channel especially for bass effects, called LFE (Low
Frequency Effect), the system has a total of 5.1-channels (LFE is
counted as 0.1 channel). By using 2-channel stereo for the
surround speakers, more accurate moving sound effects and
surround sound environment are possible than with Dolby
Surround. The wide dynamic range from maximum to minimum
volume reproduced by the 5 full-range channels and the precise
sound orientation generated using digital sound processing
provide listeners with unprecedented excitement and realism.
With this unit, any sound environment from monaural up to a 5.1channel configuration can be freely selected for your enjoyment.

■ Dolby Digital EX
Dolby Digital EX creates 6 full-bandwidth output channels from
5.1-channel sources. This is done using a matrix decoder that
derives 3 surround channels from the 2 in the original recording.
For the best results, Dolby Digital EX should be used with movie
sound tracks recorded with Dolby Digital Surround EX. With this
additional channel, you can experience more dynamic and
realistic moving sound especially with scenes with “fly-over” and
“fly-around” effects.

■ Dolby Digital Plus
Dolby Digital Plus is an advanced audio technology developed
for high-definition programming and media including HD
broadcasts, HD DVD, and Blu-ray Disc. Selected as a mandatory
audio standard for HD DVD and as an optional audio standard for
Blu-ray Disc, this technology delivers multichannel sound with
discrete channel output. Supporting bitrates up to 6.0 Mbps,
Dolby Digital Plus can carry up to 7.1 discreet audio channels
simultaneously. Supported by HDMI version 1.3 and designed for
the optical disc players and AV receivers/amplifiers of the future,
Dolby Digital Plus also remains fully compatible with the
existing multichannel audio systems that incorporate Dolby
Digital.

■ Dolby Pro Logic II
Dolby Pro Logic II is an improved technique used to decode vast
numbers of existing Dolby Surround sources. This new
technology enables a discrete 5-channel playback with 2 front left
and right channels, 1 center channel, and 2 surround left and right
channels instead of only 1 surround channel for conventional Pro
Logic technology. There are three modes available: “Music
mode” for music sources, “Movie mode” for movie sources and
“Game mode” for game sources.

■ Dolby Pro Logic IIx
Dolby Pro Logic IIx is a new technology enabling discrete multichannel playback from 2-channel or multi-channel sources. There
are three modes available: “Music mode” for music sources,
“Movie mode” for movie sources (for 2-channel sources only)
and “Game mode” for game sources.

■ Dolby Surround

■ DTS Express

Dolby Surround uses a 4-channel analog recording system to
reproduce realistic and dynamic sound effects: 2 front left and
right channels (stereo), a center channel for dialog (monaural),
and a surround channel for special sound effects (monaural). The
surround channel reproduces sound within a narrow frequency
range. Dolby Surround is widely used with nearly all video tapes
and laser discs, and in many TV and cable broadcasts as well. The
Dolby Pro Logic decoder built into this unit employs a digital
signal processing system that automatically stabilizes the volume
on each channel to enhance moving sound effects and
directionality.

DTS Express is an advanced audio technology for the optional
feature on Blu-ray Disc or HD DVD, which offers high-quality,
low bit rate audio optimized for network streaming, and Internet
applications. DTS Express is used for the Secondary Audio
feature of Blu-ray Disc or the Sub Audio feature of HD DVD.
These features deliver audio commentaries (for example, the
additional commentaries made by the director of a film) on
demand by the users via the Internet, etc. DTS Express signals are
mixed down with the main audio stream on the player
component, and the component sends the mixed audio stream to
the AV receivers/amplifiers via digital coaxial, digital optical, or
analog connections.

■ Dolby TrueHD
Dolby TrueHD is an advanced lossless audio technology
developed for high-definition disc-based media including HD
DVD and Blu-ray Disc. Selected as a mandatory audio standard
for HD DVD and as an optional audio standard for Blu-ray Disc,
this technology delivers sound that is bit-for-bit identical to the
studio master, offering a high-definition home theater experience.
Supporting bitrates up to 18.0 Mbps, Dolby TrueHD can carry up
to 8 discrete channels of 24-bit/96 kHz audio simultaneously.
Supported by HDMI version 1.3 and designed for the optical disc
players and AV receivers/amplifiers of the future, Dolby TrueHD
also remains fully compatible with the existing multichannel
audio systems and retains the metadata capability of Dolby
Digital, allowing dialog normalization and dynamic range
control.

■ DSD
Direct Stream Digital (DSD) technology stores audio signals on
digital storage media, such as Super Audio CDs. Using DSD,
signals are stored as single bit values at a high-frequency
sampling rate of 2.8224 MHz, while noise shaping and
oversampling are used to reduce distortion, a common occurrence
with very high quantization of audio signals. Due to the high
sampling rate, better audio quality can be achieved than that
offered by the PCM format used for normal audio CDs.

DTS 96/24 offers an unprecedented level of audio quality for
multi-channel sound on DVD video, and is fully backwardcompatible with all DTS decoders. “96” refers to a 96 kHz
sampling rate compared to the typical 48 kHz sampling rate. “24”
refers to 24-bit word length.
DTS 96/24 offers sound quality transparent to the original 96/24
master, and 96/24 5.1-channel sound with full-quality full-motion
video for music programs and motion picture soundtracks on
DVD video.

■ DTS Digital Surround

■ DTS-HD Master Audio
DTS-HD Master Audio is an advanced lossless audio technology
developed for high-definition disc-based media including HD
DVD and Blu-ray Disc. Selected as a mandatory audio standard
for both HD DVD and Blu-ray Disc, this technology delivers
sound that is bit-for-bit identical to the studio master, offering a
high-definition home theater experience. Supporting bitrates up to
18.0 Mbps for HD DVD and up to 24.5 Mbps for Blu-ray Disc,
DTS-HD Master Audio can carry up to 7.1 discrete channels of
24-bit/96 kHz audio simultaneously. Supported by HDMI version
1.3 and designed for the optical disc players and AV receivers/
amplifiers of the future, DTS-HD Master Audio also remains
fully compatible with the existing multichannel audio systems
that incorporate DTS Digital Surround.

■ HDMI
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the first
industry-supported, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video
interface. Providing an interface between any source (such as a
set-top box or AV receiver) and an audio/video monitor (such as a
digital television), HDMI supports standard, enhanced or highdefinition video as well as multi-channel digital audio using a
single cable. HDMI transmits all ATSC HDTV standards and
supports 8-channel digital audio, with bandwidth to spare to
accommodate future enhancements and requirements.
When used in combination with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital
Content Protection), HDMI provides a secure audio/video
interface that meets the security requirements of content
providers and system operators. For further information on
HDMI, visit the HDMI website at
“http://www.hdmi.org/”.

DTS digital surround was developed to replace the analog
soundtracks of movies with a 6.1-channel digital sound track, and
is now rapidly gaining popularity in movie theaters around the
world. DTS, Inc. has developed a home theater system so that you
can enjoy the depth of sound and natural spatial representation of
DTS digital surround in your home. This system produces
practically distortion-free 6-channel sound (technically, front left
and right, center, surround left and right, and LFE 0.1
(subwoofer) channels for a total of 5.1 channels). This unit
incorporates a DTS-ES decoder that enables 6.1-channel
reproduction by adding the surround back channel to the existing
5.1-channel format.

DTS-HD High Resolution Audio is an high resolution audio
technology developed for high-definition disc-based media
including HD DVD and Blu-ray Disc. Selected as an optional
audio standard for both HD DVD and Blu-ray Disc, this
technology delivers sound that is virtually indistinguishable from
the original, offering a high-definition home theater experience.
Supporting bitrates up to 3.0 Mbps for HD DVD and 6.0 Mbps
for Blu-ray Disc, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio can carry up
to 7.1 discrete channels of 24-bit/96 kHz audio simultaneously.
Supported by HDMI version 1.3 and designed for the optical disc
players and AV receivers/amplifiers of the future, DTS-HD High
Resolution Audio also remains fully compatible with the existing
multichannel audio systems that incorporate DTS Digital
Surround.

ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION

■ DTS 96/24

■ DTS-HD High Resolution Audio

Glossary

■ LFE 0.1 channel
This channel reproduces low-frequency signals. The frequency
range of this channel is from 20 Hz to 120 Hz. This channel is
counted as 0.1 because it only enforces a low-frequency range
compared to the full-range reproduced by the other 5/6 channels
in Dolby Digital or DTS 5.1/6.1-channel systems.

■ MP3
One of the audio compression methods used by MPEG. It
employs the irreversible compression method, which achieves a
high compression rate by thinning out the data of hardly audible
part to the human ears. It is said to be capable of compressing the
data quantity by about 1/11 (128 kbps) while maintaining a
similar audio quality to music CD.

■ MPEG-4 AAC
An MPEG-4 audio standard. As it allows compression of data at a
bit rate lower than that of MPEG-2 AAC, it is used among others
for mobile telephones, portable audio players and other lowcapacity devices requiring high sound quality.
In addition to the above types of devices, MPEG-4 AAC is also
used to distribute contents on the Internet, and as such is
supported by computers, media servers and many other devices.

■ Neo:6
Neo:6 decodes the conventional 2-channel sources for 6- channel
playback by the specific decoder. It enables playback with the
full-range channels with higher separation just like digital
discrete signal playback. There are two modes available: “Music
mode” for music sources and “Cinema mode” for movie sources.

■ Neural-THX Surround
“Neural-THX” Surround is taking surround sound to the next
level. This revolutionary new technology delivers the rich
envelopment and discrete image detail of surround sound in a
format that is fully compatible with stereo. Neural-THX Surround
reduces the bandwidth needed for broadcasters to deliver true,
multi-channel surround presentations, and enables 7.1-channel
support for gaming and movies. By unmasking the audio details,
typically lost by other playback systems, audiences will
experience the deep ambience and subtle details of movies, music
and games. And with this technology being used by sound
designers during content creation, as well as embedded into
playback devices, Neural-THX Surround promises a listening
experience that is true to the original mix. Neural-THX Surround
has been chosen as the official surround sound broadcast format
for XM Satellite Radio’s “XM HD Surround”, as well as other
leading FM/HD radio stations worldwide. For additional
information, please visit http://www.neuralsurround.com/.

■ PCM (Linear PCM)
Linear PCM is a signal format under which an analog audio
signal is digitized, recorded and transmitted without using any
compression. This is used as a method of recording CDs and
DVD audio. The PCM system uses a technique for sampling the
size of the analog signal per very small unit of time. Standing for
“Pulse Code Modulation”, the analog signal is encoded as pulses
and then modulated for recording.

142 En

■ Sampling frequency and number of
quantized bits
When digitizing an analog audio signal, the number of times the
signal is sampled per second is called the sampling frequency,
while the degree of fineness when converting the sound level into
a numeric value is called the number of quantized bits. The range
of rates that can be played back is determined based on the
sampling rate, while the dynamic range representing the sound
level difference is determined by the number of quantized bits. In
principle, the higher the sampling frequency, the wider the range
of frequencies that can be played back, and the higher the number
of quantized bits, the more finely the sound level can be
reproduced.

■ SRS CS II (SRS Circle Surround II™)
SRS CS II (SRS Circle Surround II) is a high-performance
6.1 channel matrix surround sound decoding system. It is the
next-generation of the original SRS Circle Surround technology,
incorporating powerful industry-first features including the dialog
clarity enhancement technology and added cinema-like bass to
the front channels and subwoofer.

■ S-video signal
With the S-video signal system, the video signal normally
transmitted using a pin cable is separated and transmitted as the Y
signal for the luminance and the C signal for the chrominance
through the S-video cable. Using the
S VIDEO jack eliminates video signal transmission loss and
allows recording and playback of even more beautiful images.

■ WAV
Windows standard audio file format, which defines the method of
recording the digital data obtained by converting audio signals. It
does not specify the compression (coding) method so a desired
compression method can be used with it. By default, it is
compatible with the PCM method (no compression) and some
compression methods including the ADPCM method.

■ WMA
An audio compression method developed by Microsoft
Corporation. It employs the irreversible compression method,
which achieves a high compression rate by thinning out the data
of hardly audible part to the human ears. It is said to be capable of
compressing the data quantity by about 1/22 (64 kbps) while
maintaining a similar audio quality to music CD.

■ “x.v.Color”
A color space standard supported by HDMI version 1.3. It is a
more extensive color space than sRGB, and allows the expression
of colors that could not be expressed before. While remaining
compatible with the color gamut of sRGB standards, “x.v.Color”
expands the color space and can thus produce more vivid, natural
images. It is particularly effective for still pictures and computer
graphics.

SOUND FIELD PROGRAM INFORMATION

Sound field program information
■ Elements of a sound field

■ CINEMA DSP 3D

What really creates the rich, full tones of a live instrument
are the multiple reflections from the walls of the room. In
addition to making the sound live, these reflections enable
us to tell where the player is situated as well as the size
and shape of the room in which we are sitting.
There are two distinct types of sound reflections that
combine to make up the sound field in addition to the
direct sound coming straight to our ears from the player’s
instrument.

The actually measured sound field data contain the
information of the height of the sound images. CINEMA
DSP 3D feature achieves the reproduction of the accurate
height of the sound images so that it creates the accurate
and intensive stereoscopic sound fields in a listening
room.

Early reflections
Reflected sounds reach our ears extremely rapidly (50 ms
to 100 ms after the direct sound), after reflecting from one
surface only (for example, from a wall or the ceiling).
Early reflections actually add clarity to the direct sound.
Reverberations
These are caused by reflections from more than one
surface (for example, from the walls, and/or the ceiling) so
numerous that they merge together to form a continuous
sonic afterglow. They are non-directional and lessen the
clarity of the direct sound.
Direct sound, early reflections and subsequent
reverberations taken together help us to determine the
subjective size and shape of the room, and it is this
information that the digital sound field processor
reproduces in order to create sound fields.

Yamaha has developed a natural, realistic sound effect
DSP algorithm for headphones. Parameters for
headphones have been set for each sound field so that
accurate representations of all the sound field programs
can be enjoyed on headphones.

■ Virtual CINEMA DSP
Yamaha has developed a Virtual CINEMA DSP algorithm
that allows you to enjoy DSP sound field surround effects
even without any surround speakers by using virtual
surround speakers. It is even possible to enjoy Virtual
CINEMA DSP using a minimal two-speaker system that
does not include a center speaker.

■ Compressed Music Enhancer
The Compressed Music Enhancer feature of this unit
enhances your listening experience by regenerating the
missing harmonics in a compression artifact. As a result,
flattened complexity due to the loss of high-frequency
fidelity as well as lack of bass due to the loss of lowfrequency bass is compensated, providing improved
performance of the overall sound system.
ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION

If you could create the appropriate early reflections and
subsequent reverberations in your listening room, you
would be able to create your own listening environment.
The acoustics in your room could be changed to those of a
concert hall, a dance floor, or a room with virtually any
size at all. This ability to create sound fields at will is
exactly what Yamaha has done with the digital sound field
processor.

■ SILENT CINEMA

■ CINEMA DSP
Since the Dolby Surround and DTS systems were
originally designed for use in movie theaters, their effect
is best felt in a theater having many speakers designed for
acoustic effects. Since home conditions, such as room
size, wall material, number of speakers, and so on, can
differ so widely, it is inevitable that there are differences in
the sound heard. Based on a wealth of actually measured
data, Yamaha CINEMA DSP provides the audiovisual
experience of a movie theater in the listening room of your
own home by using the Yamaha original sound field
technology combined with various digital audio systems.

PARAMETRIC EQUALIZER INFORMATION

Parametric equalizer information
This unit employs Yamaha Parametric room Acoustic
Optimizer (YPAO) technology to optimize the frequency
characteristics of its parametric equalizer to match your
listening environment. YPAO uses a combination of the
following three parameters (Frequency, Gain and Q factor)
to provide highly precise adjustment of the frequency
characteristics.

■ Q factor
The width of the specified frequency band is referred to as
the Q factor. This parameter is adjustable between the
values 0.5 and 10.

■ Frequency
This parameter is adjustable in one-third octave
increments between 32 Hz and 16 kHz.

■ Gain
This parameter is adjustable in increments of 0.5 dB
between –20 and +6 dB.

YPAO adjusts frequency characteristics to suit your
listening requirements using a combination of the above
three parameters (Frequency, Gain and Q factor) for each
equalizer band in this unit’s parametric equalizer. This unit
has 7 equalizer bands for each channel.
The use of multiple equalizer bands enables more precise
adjustments of frequency characteristics (as in Figure 2).
This is not possible using only a single equalizer band (as
in Figure 1).

before diving into the code.

OVERVIEW
This package contains C software to implement JPEG image compression and
decompression. JPEG (pronounced "jay-peg") is a standardized compression method for
full-color and gray-scale images. JPEG is intended for compressing "real-world" scenes;
line drawings, cartoons and other non-realistic images are not its strong suit. JPEG is
lossy, meaning that the output image is not exactly identical to the input image. Hence
you must not use JPEG if you have to have identical output bits. However, on typical
photographic images, very good compression levels can be obtained with no visible
change, and remarkably high compression levels are possible if you can tolerate a lowquality image. For more details, see the references, or just experiment with various
compression settings.
This software implements JPEG baseline, extended-sequential, and progressive
compression processes. Provision is made for supporting all variants of these processes,
although some uncommon parameter settings aren't implemented yet. For legal reasons,
we are not distributing code for the arithmetic-coding variants of JPEG; see LEGAL
ISSUES. We have made no provision for supporting the hierarchical or lossless
processes defined in the standard.
We provide a set of library routines for reading and writing JPEG image files, plus two
sample applications "cjpeg" and "djpeg", which use the library to perform conversion
between JPEG and some other popular image file formats. The library is intended to be
reused in other applications.
In order to support file conversion and viewing software, we have included considerable
functionality beyond the bare JPEG coding/decoding capability; for example, the color
quantization modules are not strictly part of JPEG decoding, but they are essential for
output to colormapped file formats or colormapped displays. These extra functions can
be compiled out of the library if not required for a particular application. We have also
included "jpegtran", a utility for lossless transcoding between different JPEG processes,
and "rdjpgcom" and "wrjpgcom", two simple applications for inserting and extracting
textual comments in JFIF files.

TO DO

Programmer and internal documentation:

The emphasis in designing this software has been on achieving portability and
flexibility, while also making it fast enough to be useful. In particular, the software is not
intended to be read as a tutorial on JPEG. (See the REFERENCES section for
introductory material.) Rather, it is intended to be reliable, portable, industrial-strength
code. We do not claim to have achieved that goal in every aspect of the software, but we
strive for it.
We welcome the use of this software as a component of commercial products. No
royalty is required, but we do ask for an acknowledgement in product documentation, as
described under LEGAL ISSUES.

LEGAL ISSUES
In plain English:
1.

We don't promise that this software works. (But if you find any bugs, please let us
know!)

You can use this software for whatever you want. You don't have to pay us.

You may not pretend that you wrote this software. If you use it in a program, you
must acknowledge somewhere in your documentation that you've used the IJG
code.

(Adjacent articles in that issue discuss MPEG motion picture compression, applications
of JPEG, and related topics.) If you don't have the CACM issue handy, a PostScript file
containing a revised version of Wallace's article is available at ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/
jpeg/wallace.ps.gz. The file (actually a preprint for an article that appeared in IEEE
Trans. Consumer Electronics) omits the sample images that appeared in CACM, but it
includes corrections and some added material. Note: the Wallace article is copyright
ACM and IEEE, and it may not be used for commercial purposes.
A somewhat less technical, more leisurely introduction to JPEG can be found in "The
Data Compression Book" by Mark Nelson and Jean-loup Gailly, published by M&T
Books (New York), 2nd ed. 1996, ISBN 1-55851-434-1. This book provides good
explanations and example C code for a multitude of compression methods including
JPEG. It is an excellent source if you are comfortable reading C code but don't know
much about data compression in general. The book's JPEG sample code is far from
industrial-strength, but when you are ready to look at a full implementation, you've got
one here...

In legalese:

The best full description of JPEG is the textbook "JPEG Still Image Data Compression
Standard" by William B. Pennebaker and Joan L. Mitchell, published by Van Nostrand
Reinhold, 1993, ISBN 0-442-01272-1. Price US$59.95, 638 pp.
The book includes the complete text of the ISO JPEG standards (DIS 10918-1 and draft
DIS 10918-2). This is by far the most complete exposition of JPEG in existence, and we
highly recommend it.

The authors make NO WARRANTY or representation, either express or implied, with
respect to this software, its quality, accuracy, merchantability, or fitness for a particular
purpose. This software is provided "AS IS", and you, its user, assume the entire risk as
to its quality and accuracy.

The JPEG standard itself is not available electronically; you must order a paper copy
through ISO or ITU. (Unless you feel a need to own a certified official copy, we
recommend buying the Pennebaker and Mitchell book instead; it's much cheaper and
includes a great deal of useful explanatory material.)

In the USA, copies of the standard may be ordered from ANSI Sales at (212)642-4900,
or from Global Engineering Documents at (800) 854-7179. (ANSI doesn't take credit
card orders, but Global does.) It's not cheap: as of 1992, ANSI was charging $95 for Part
1 and $47 for Part 2, plus 7% shipping/handling. The standard is divided into two parts,
Part 1 being the actual specification, while Part 2 covers compliance testing methods.
Part 1 is titled "Digital Compression and Coding of Continuous-tone Still Images, Part
1: Requirements and guidelines" and has document numbers ISO/IEC IS 10918-1, ITUT T.81. Part 2 is titled "Digital Compression and Coding of Continuous-tone Still
Images, Part 2: Compliance testing" and has document numbers ISO/IEC IS 10918-2,
ITU-T T.83.

Permission is hereby granted to use, copy, modify, and distribute this software (or
portions thereof) for any purpose, without fee, subject to these conditions:
(1) If any part of the source code for this software is distributed, then this README file
must be included, with this copyright and no-warranty notice unaltered; and any
additions, deletions, or changes to the original files must be clearly indicated in
accompanying documentation.
(2) If only executable code is distributed, then the accompanying documentation must
state that "this software is based in part on the work of the Independent JPEG
Group".
(3) Permission for use of this software is granted only if the user accepts full
responsibility for any undesirable consequences; the authors accept NO LIABILITY
for damages of any kind.
These conditions apply to any software derived from or based on the IJG code, not just
to the unmodified library. If you use our work, you ought to acknowledge us.
Permission is NOT granted for the use of any IJG author's name or company name in
advertising or publicity relating to this software or products derived from it. This
software may be referred to only as "the Independent JPEG Group's software".
We specifically permit and encourage the use of this software as the basis of commercial
products, provided that all warranty or liability claims are assumed by the product
vendor.
ansi2knr.c is included in this distribution by permission of L. Peter Deutsch, sole
proprietor of its copyright holder, Aladdin Enterprises of Menlo Park, CA.
ansi2knr.c is NOT covered by the above copyright and conditions, but instead by the
usual distribution terms of the Free Software Foundation; principally, that you must
include source code if you redistribute it. (See the file ansi2knr.c for full details.)
However, since ansi2knr.c is not needed as part of any program generated from the IJG
code, this does not limit you more than the foregoing paragraphs do.
The Unix configuration script "configure" was produced with GNU Autoconf. It is
copyright by the Free Software Foundation but is freely distributable. The same holds
for its supporting scripts (config.guess, config.sub, ltconfig, ltmain.sh). Another support
script, install-sh, is copyright by M.I.T. but is also freely distributable.
It appears that the arithmetic coding option of the JPEG spec is covered by patents
owned by IBM, AT&T, and Mitsubishi. Hence arithmetic coding cannot legally be used
without obtaining one or more licenses. For this reason, support for arithmetic coding
has been removed from the free JPEG software. (Since arithmetic coding provides only
a marginal gain over the unpatented Huffman mode, it is unlikely that very many
implementations will support it.) So far as we are aware, there are no patent restrictions
on the remaining code.
The IJG distribution formerly included code to read and write GIF files. To avoid
entanglement with the Unisys LZW patent, GIF reading support has been removed
altogether, and the GIF writer has been simplified to produce "uncompressed GIFs".
This technique does not use the LZW algorithm; the resulting GIF files are larger than
usual, but are readable by all standard GIF decoders.
We are required to state that
"The Graphics Interchange Format(c) is the Copyright property of CompuServe
Incorporated. GIF(sm) is a Service Mark property of CompuServe Incorporated."

REFERENCES
We highly recommend reading one or more of these references before trying to
understand the innards of the JPEG software.
The best short technical introduction to the JPEG compression algorithm is
Wallace, Gregory K. "The JPEG Still Picture Compression Standard",
Communications of the ACM, April 1991 (vol. 34 no. 4), pp. 30-44.

Some extensions to the original JPEG standard are defined in JPEG Part 3, a newer ISO
standard numbered ISO/IEC IS 10918-3 and ITU-T T.84. IJG currently does not support
any Part 3 extensions.
The JPEG standard does not specify all details of an interchangeable file format. For the
omitted details we follow the "JFIF" conventions, revision 1.02. A copy of the JFIF spec

A PostScript version of this document is available by FTP at
ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/jpeg/jfif.ps.gz. There is also a plain text version at
ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/jpeg/jfif.txt.gz, but it is missing the figures.
The TIFF 6.0 file format specification can be obtained by FTP from ftp://ftp.sgi.com/
graphics/tiff/TIFF6.ps.gz. The JPEG incorporation scheme found in the TIFF 6.0 spec
of 3-June-92 has a number of serious problems. IJG does not recommend use of the
TIFF 6.0 design (TIFF Compression tag 6). Instead, we recommend the JPEG design
proposed by TIFF Technical Note #2 (Compression tag 7). Copies of this Note can be
obtained from ftp.sgi.com or from ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/jpeg/. It is expected that the
next revision of the TIFF spec will replace the 6.0 JPEG design with the Note's design.
Although IJG's own code does not support TIFF/JPEG, the free libtiff library uses our
library to implement TIFF/JPEG per the Note. libtiff is available from
ftp://ftp.sgi.com/graphics/tiff/.

ARCHIVE LOCATIONS
The "official" archive site for this software is ftp.uu.net (Internet address 192.48.96.9).
The most recent released version can always be found there in directory graphics/jpeg.
This particular version will be archived as
ftp://ftp.uu.net/graphics/jpeg/jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz. If you don't have direct Internet access,
UUNET's archives are also available via UUCP; contact help@uunet.uu.net for
information on retrieving files that way.
Numerous Internet sites maintain copies of the UUNET files. However, only ftp.uu.net
is guaranteed to have the latest official version.
You can also obtain this software in DOS-compatible "zip" archive format from the
SimTel archives (ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/msdos/graphics/), or on CompuServe
in the Graphics Support forum (GO CIS:GRAPHSUP), library 12 "JPEG Tools". Again,
these versions may sometimes lag behind the ftp.uu.net release.
The JPEG FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) article is a useful source of general
information about JPEG. It is updated constantly and therefore is not included in this
distribution. The FAQ is posted every two weeks to Usenet newsgroups
comp.graphics.misc, news.answers, and other groups. It is available on the World Wide
Web at http://www.faqs.org/faqs/jpeg-faq/ and other news.answers archive sites,
including the official news.answers archive at rtfm.mit.edu: ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/
usenet/news.answers/jpeg-faq/.

RELATED SOFTWARE
Numerous viewing and image manipulation programs now support JPEG. (Quite a few
of them use this library to do so.) The JPEG FAQ described above lists some of the more
popular free and shareware viewers, and tells where to obtain them on Internet.
If you are on a Unix machine, we highly recommend Jef Poskanzer's free PBMPLUS
software, which provides many useful operations on PPM-format image files. In
particular, it can convert PPM images to and from a wide range of other formats, thus
making cjpeg/djpeg considerably more useful. The latest version is distributed by the
NetPBM group, and is available from numerous sites, notably ftp://wuarchive.wustl.edu/
graphics/graphics/packages/NetPBM/.
Unfortunately PBMPLUS/NETPBM is not nearly as portable as the IJG software is; you
are likely to have difficulty making it work on any non-Unix machine.
A different free JPEG implementation, written by the PVRG group at Stanford, is
available from ftp://havefun.stanford.edu/pub/jpeg/. This program is designed for
research and experimentation rather than production use; it is slower, harder to use, and
less portable than the IJG code, but it is easier to read and modify. Also, the PVRG code
supports lossless JPEG, which we do not. (On the other hand, it doesn't do progressive
JPEG.)

FILE FORMAT WARS
Some JPEG programs produce files that are not compatible with our library. The root of
the problem is that the ISO JPEG committee failed to specify a concrete file format.
Some vendors "filled in the blanks" on their own, creating proprietary formats that no
one else could read. (For example, none of the early commercial JPEG implementations
for the Macintosh were able to exchange compressed files.)
The file format we have adopted is called JFIF (see REFERENCES). This format has
been agreed to by a number of major commercial JPEG vendors, and it has become the
de facto standard. JFIF is a minimal or "low end" representation. We recommend the use
of TIFF/JPEG (TIFF revision 6.0 as modified by TIFF Technical Note #2) for "high
end" applications that need to record a lot of additional data about an image. TIFF/JPEG
is fairly new and not yet widely supported, unfortunately.
The upcoming JPEG Part 3 standard defines a file format called SPIFF. SPIFF is
interoperable with JFIF, in the sense that most JFIF decoders should be able to read the
most common variant of SPIFF. SPIFF has some technical advantages over JFIF, but its
major claim to fame is simply that it is an official standard rather than an informal one.
At this point it is unclear whether SPIFF will supersede JFIF or whether JFIF will
remain the de-facto standard. IJG intends to support SPIFF once the standard is frozen,
but we have not decided whether it should become our default output format or not. (In
any case, our decoder will remain capable of reading JFIF indefinitely.)
Various proprietary file formats incorporating JPEG compression also exist. We have
little or no sympathy for the existence of these formats. Indeed, one of the original
reasons for developing this free software was to help force convergence on common,
open format standards for JPEG files. Don't use a proprietary file format!

TO DO
The major thrust for v7 will probably be improvement of visual quality. The current
method for scaling the quantization tables is known not to be very good at low Q values.
We also intend to investigate block boundary smoothing, "poor man's variable
quantization", and other means of improving quality-vs-file-size performance without
sacrificing compatibility.
