DTS 96/24*4			This mode is for use with DTS 96/24	D	XCN
			sources. This is high-resolution DTS with a
	D T S	9 6 / 2 4
			96 kHz sampling rate and 24-bit resolution,
			providing superior fidelity. Use it with
			DVDs that bear the DTS 96/24 logo.
DTS-ES Discrete*5			This mode is for use with DTS-ES Discrete	G	V
			soundtracks, which use a discrete surround
	E S	D i s c r e t e
			back channel for true 6.1/7.1-channel
			playback. The seven totally separate audio
			channels provide better spatial imaging and
			360-degree sound localization, perfect for
			sounds that pan across the surround
			channels. Use it with DVDs that bear the
			DTS-ES logo, especially those with a DTS-
			ES Discrete soundtrack.
DTS-ES Matrix*5			This mode is for use with DTS-ES Matrix	G	V
			soundtracks, which use a matrix-encoded
	E S	M a t r i x
			back-channel for 6.1/7.1-channel playback.
			Use it with DVDs that bear the DTS-ES
			logo, especially those with a DTS-ES Matrix
			soundtrack.
