Magnasonic DVD816 instruction manual Speaker Setup, Downmix, Digital Setup, OP Mode, Dynamic Range

E) SPEAKER SETUP

The speaker setup options are illustrated below:

zDOWNMIX

Use the Ÿźbuttons to scroll through the DOWNMIX options.

LT/RT : Use this setting when connecting to a Dolby Digital amplifier

STEREO : Use this setting when connecting to a stereo TV or amplifier.

VSS : Use this setting to make a two speaker system sound as though it includes rear speakers; the "virtual" rear speakers allow you to enjoy a surround-like effect. It is for use with Dolby Digital DVDs only.

F) DIGITAL SETUP

The video setup options are illustrated below:

zOP MODE

LINE OUT : Select this setting when you connect to a TV that has AV inputs (most TV’s).

RF REMOD : Select this setting when you connect to a TV that doesn't have a direct AV input. This option will take the RF signal and increase the sound level of the signal to make it clearer. Usually only older TV’s will not have direct AV inputs.

zDYNAMIC RANGE

When “LINE OUT” setting is selected, choose this setting to adjust the range between the softest and loudest levels a source can produce without distortion. When you set the

dynamic range to FULL, the peak values of the audio will be minimized, this is great for night time viewing as you do not have to keep on changing the volume level when you are listening to louder parts of a movie or musical piece (i.e. explosions, rock concerts etc.). When you change the setting to OFF, you will hear the sound as it was recorded when it was being produced. This means that some parts of a musical piece or movie might be much louder then other parts depending on the musical piece or movie.

Note:

This option is only available when the DOWNMIX option is set to OFF.
