SAP stands for "Second Audio Program". When SAP is
available for a program, the SAP icon in the channel banner
will light up. SAP content can be another language,
descriptions for the visually impaired, or audio not related
to the program (for example, music or news).
If you set "SAP On" and SAP is available for a program, you
will hear SAP for any channel where it is available. SAP is
only available for analog (NTSC) programs.

Turning Sound Logic on will monitor a program's audio
track and limit volume excursions to a minimum and
maximum volume range from the current volume setting.
Acting like a dynamic range limiter, it compresses the
dynamic range to limit sudden volume increases (for
example, the sudden increase in volume you sometimes hear
when a commercial starts).

Sound Logic
Monitors a program’s audio track and limits volume excursions to a minimum
and maximum volume range from current volume setting. Acting like a
dynamic range limiter; it compresses the dynamic range to limit suggested
volume increases (for example, the sudden increase in volume you sometimes
hear when a commercial starts). Choose Sound Logic On or Sound Logic Off,

Audio Language
The Audio Language menu lets you choose the default audio language you
want to hear for ATSC (digital TV) programs. If the Audio Language icon ( )
in the banner lights, it means there is more than one audio language or audio
format (Dolby Digital, DTS, etc.) available. The system automatically sets the
audio program to the default audio language when the channel you are
viewing is a digital terrestrial channel and the specified language is available for
that program.
In the Audio Language menu, highlight the default audio language you want by
pressing the up and down arrow buttons on your remote control. Press OK to
select whenever available on a channel to hear that Audio Language.
Some programs may have audio languages available that you can hear but can’t
be set as the default. To select and hear those audio languages, navigate to the
“Change Audio” action button and select OK, or use SOUND button on remote.
Note: You can change the Audio Language temporarily by pressing
SOUND button on the remote control. Changing channels reverts the
channel back to the default Audio Language original selected in the menu.
SAP (Second Audio Program)
When turned on, Second Audio Program plays the program’s audio in a second
language, if one is available. SAP is also used to broadcast a program’s audio
with descriptions of the video for the visually impaired. Or, SAP might contain
audio which is totally unrelated to the video.
Notes: SAP is broadcast in mono and is only available for analog
programs, not digital programs.
You can activate SAP (if available) temporarily with the SOUND button.
Changing channels reverts SAP back to original SAP menu setting.
