Little bug relative to front panel display ?

[LaurentG]

Hi all

I would like to know if you noticed the same thing.
When playing a DVD soundtrack encoded in DD 1.0, the front panel display let me believe that the RSP-1066 is decoding a 5.1 soundtrack while only the center channel should be displayed.

When playing a DVD soundtrack encoded in DD2.0 (mono), the front panel shows me the left and right front channels + the sub channel as active channels. Tell me if with the new firmware and the possibility to disable the dubbling bass, the sub channel is shown in the front panel ?

LFE is always shown lit with my RSP-1066, even with just stereo music. But no sound comes out of it. I use the latest 2.25 firmware and I have set my front speakers to large, so the sub should not be used (and it isnt used actually).

[LaurentG]

Yes, same problem here if I setup all speakers in large and I read a DD5.0 soundtack (Corrs MTV unplugged) : LFE is displayed when it shouldn't (no sound coming from the subwoofer).

For my information, is there a way to notice bugs to Rotel ?
Or is there somone here in contact with Rotel ?
Or does Rotel read this forum ?

After some discussion on another forum, it seems that it is more a choice done by Rotel than a real bug.
We have just to know that the RSP-1066 doesn't display in the fron panel the current active channels but something static that seems to be only dependent on the current active surround mode.
