∫Concerning logo marks

Dolby Digital (l 42)

This is a method of coding digital signals developed by Dolby Laboratories. Apart from stereo (2 channel) audio, these signals can also be multi-channel audio. A large amount of audio information can be recorded on one disc using this method.

DTS Digital Surround (l 42)

This surround system is used in many movie theaters around the world. The separation between channels is good and the compression ratio is low, so realistic sound effects are possible.
