Note about features in the Audio Settings menu

None of the features found in the Audio Settings menu have any effect on sound output through the i.LINK connector (DV- 868AVi only).

Audio DRC

• Default setting: Off

When watching Dolby Digital DVDs at low volume, it’s easy to lose the quieter sounds completely—including some of the dialog. Switching Audio DRC (Dynamic Range Control) to On can help by bringing up the quieter sounds, while controlling loud peaks.

How much of a difference you hear depends on the material you’re listening to. If the material doesn’t have wide variations in volume, you may not notice much change.

1Press HOME MENU and select ‘Audio Settings’ from the on-screen display.

Audio DRC is only effective with Dolby Digital audio sources.

Audio DRC is only effective through the digital output when Digital Out is set to On, and Dolby Digital Out (see page 61) is set to Dolby Digital > PCM.

The effect of Audio DRC depends on your speakers and AV receiver settings.

Legato PRO

(DV-868AVi only)

• Default setting: Off

Legato PRO technology can reveal more high- frequency detail in CDs and DVDs by upsampling.

1Press HOME MENU and select ‘Audio Settings’ from the on-screen display.
