DRC (Dynamic RangeControl)
Dynamic Range Control means that you can allow the Blu-ray Disc™/DVD player to make the
loud parts of a movie’s audio track quieterthan they would be in the theatre,without making the
dialog of the actors any quieter.
This would be useful, for instance, when you want to watch a movie in the evening when others
might be sleeping.
When Dynamic Range Control is set to Off, movie soundtracks are played with the standard
dynamic range. When movie soundtracks are played at low volume or from smaller speakers,
you canset DynamicRange Controlto On.Your playerapplies appropriatecompression tomake
low-level content more intelligible and prevent dramatic passages from getting too loud.
Selecting the “Auto” option turns on the Dynamic Range Control for all Blu-ray Disc™ movie
soundtracks except Dolby
®
TrueHD. If youhave selected a Dolby
®
TrueHD track onthe Blu-ray
Disc™, the “auto” selection tells the Blu-ray Disc™/DVD player toonly turn on dynamic range
control if information embedded in the Dolby
®
TrueHD sound track tells it to do so.
