David, manuals occupy a lot of my gripe space, too. I used to tell my kids to read the manual first. After decades in computers I now gripe if I really have to read a software manual. How nice it would be if other electronics didn't need manuals. One would also think that the better brands would...

I had already set the AFD to auto but it's nice to get confirmation that it was correct. On the pre-programmed sound fields - I don't see a selection to set them off, unless punching AFD overrides the MOVIE button. Robert
