Dolby Digital

Dolby Digital is a sound system developed by Dolby Laboratories Inc. that gives movie theatre ambience to audio output when the Unit is connected to a Dolby Digital 5.1 channel processor or amplifier.

This Unit automatically recognizes DVDs that have been recorded with Dolby Digital. Not all Dolby Digital sources are recorded with 6 channels.

Some sources marked Dolby Digital may be recorded in Dolby Surround, a 2 channel system. Look for this logo on your DVD Unit.

Dolby Pro Logic II creates five full-bandwidth output channels from two-channel sources. This is done using an advanced, high-purity matrix surround decoder that extracts the spatial properties of the original recording without adding any new sounds or tonal colorations.

Movie Mode (MOVIE)

The Movie mode in Pro Logic II is very similar to that of the original Pro Logic decoder. The main difference is that it has stereo surround channels and no surround filter, unlike Pro Logic which has a mono surround channel and a 7 kHz surround filter. Movie mode is the standard required for all A/V systems. When an autosound unit has a video screen, it is also considered an A/V system. It can be called simply "Pro Logic II".

Music Mode (MUSIC)

The Music mode offers users some flexibility to control the end results to their own taste. Music mode should not be used with THX audio processing mode. Music mode is recommended as the standard mode for autosound music systems (without video), and is optional for A/V systems. It is recommended that Music mode be identified as the "Music" version of Pro Logic II, to distinguish it from the Movie mode.
