I’m not confirming that YPAO Volume does not work in certain scenarios. After running YPAO, YPAO Volume is turned ON by default. There is nothing in the manual that I could find that indicates that it does not work with certain signals or decoders when ON. Yamaha goes so far as to recommend enabling Adaptive DRC as well as YPAO Volume when listening at low volume and does not mention either of them not working with certain signals or decoders.
I am aware what the manual says.
I see real world usage differs, thus my post.
You can hear YPOA Volume apply when toggled on at lower volumes under -20db, just not when playing when surround decode is on Auto (Dolby Surround), Neural X, or playing Atmos or DTS:X content.
In short, I think I discovered a bug (or an issue with the manual missing details). I am in contact with Yamaha support about it as well.
Could you, or someone else who follows what I am saying, try and confirm the same and let me know what you find?
Thanks!
