When selecting the "DRC(Dynamic Range Compression:
Night mode)"
This function compresses the dynamic range of previously specified parts of Dolby Digital or DTS sound track (with extremely high volume) to minimize the difference in volume between the specified and non- specified parts. This makes it easy to hear all of the sound track when watching movies at night at low levels. The night mode can be set to OFF or ON (default value : OFF).
Note : In some Dolby Digital or DTS softwares, the night mode may not be valid.
