Dialog Level (Dialnorm) Measurement:
Beside the ability to measure loudness by above standards, the D*AP8 offers the feature to measure
the long-term A-weighted average level of dialogue within a presentation. A Dolby Digital / Digital plus
consumer decoder (e.g. a Set Top Box) will normalize the output level to -31dBFS by applying a shift
based on the Dialog Level parameter setting. The rule is: -31 - (dialog level value) = shift applied.
Example (dialog level measured = -23dB): -31 - (-23) = -8dB shift applied.

This display also shows the duration
of the measurement. If the Speech Gate
is active for the Dialogue Intelligence™
algorithm, the numbers become yellowish
when the measurement has paused
because there is no speech detected for
the moment.

Algorithm
[OFF / Active]
The Dialog Intelligence™ algorithm developed by
Dolby® Inc. searches for portions of the audio content where
speech is present. Such portions may trigger the loudness
measurement. If it is activated and no speech is detected, the
number display becomes yellowish.
