Adjusting Settings

Lets you compress the dynamic range of the

soundtrack. This may be useful when you want

to watch movies at low volumes late at night.

Dynamic range compression is possible with

Dolby Digital sources only.

xOFF

The dynamic range is not compressed.

xAUTO

The dynamic range is compressed

automatically.

xSTD

The dynamic range is compressed as intended

by the recording engineer.

xMAX

The dynamic range is compressed

dramatically.

Tips

• Dynamic range compressor lets you compress the

dynamic range of the soundtrack based on the

dynamic range information included in the Dolby

Digital signal.

• “STD” is the standard setting, but it only enacts

light compression. Therefore, we recommend

using the “MAX” setting. This greatly compresses

the dynamic range and lets you view movies late at

night at low volumes. Unlike analog limiters, the

levels are predetermined and provide a very natural

compression.

Lets you select the unit of measure for setting

distances.

xmeter

The distance is displayed in meters.

xfeet

The distance is displayed in feet.
