Dynamic Range Control

When watching Dolby Digital or DTS material at low volume, low level sounds — including some of the dialog

—can be difficult to hear properly. Using one of the Dynamic Range Control (DRC) settings can help by bringing up the low level sounds, while controlling high level peaks.

Dynamic Range Control works only with Dolby Digital soundtracks and some DTS soundtracks.
