Dynamic Range Control (DRC)
With the DVD format, you can hear a programs
soundtrack in the most accurate and realistic presentation
possible, thanks to digital audio technology. However, you
may wish to compress the dynamic range of the audio
output (the difference between the loudest sounds and the
quietest ones). Then, you may listen to a movie at a lower
volume without losing dialog intelligibility. Set DRC to On
for this effect.
PBC
Set Playback Control (PBC) to On or Off.
- On: Video CDs with PBC are played according to the
PBC.
- Off: Video CDs with PBC are played the same way as
Audio CDs.
Vocal
Set Vocal to On only when a multi-channel karaoke DVD is
playing. The karaoke channels on the disc will mix into a
normal stereo sound.
