About DRC (Dynamic Range Compression)

With the DVD format you have the opportunity to hear a program’s soundtrack in the most accurate and realistic presentation possible, thanks to the use of digital audio technology. However, in certain instances you may wish to slightly compress the dynamic range of the audio output (the difference between the loudest sounds and the quietest ones) so that you may listen to a movie at a lower volume without losing dialogue intelligibility.

■PBC On/Off

Set Playback Control (PBC) to On or Off

On: Video CDs with PBC are played back according to the PBC.

Off: Video CDs with PBC are played back in the same way Audio CDs.

■Video On/Off

Setting this option to Off is one of the best ways to achieve optimum sound quality from Audio CD playback and video output will be cut.

Notes

❍The DRC function works only during playback of Dolby Digital recorded discs.

❍The level of Dynamic Range Compression may differ depending on the DVD disc.

❍When playing karaoke, connect appropriate audio equipment (such as an amplifier) to the DVD video player.
