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.

Parental control (DVD only)
Movies on DVDs may contain scenes not suitable for
children. Therefore, discs may contain Parental Control
information that applies to the complete disc or to
certain scenes on the disc. These scenes are rated from 1
to 8, and alternative, more suitable scenes are available on
some discs. Ratings are country dependent. The Parental
Control feature allows you to prevent discs from being
played by your children or to have certain discs played with
alternative scenes.

allows the least playback. Eight (8) allows the most playback.

If you select Unlock, Parental Control is not active. The Disc

Ratings 1 to 8:
Some discs contain scenes not suitable for children. If you
set a rating for the player, all disc scenes with the same
rating or lower will be played. Higher rated scenes will not
be played unless an alternative scene is available on the disc.
The alternative must have the same rating or a lower one. If
no suitable alternative is found, playback will stop. You must
enter the 4-digit code or change the rating level in order to
play the disc.
