Basic Operation

DUAL MONO setting and playback

The dual mono setting can only be used when listening to Dolby Digital or homemade discs that have dual mono
software encoded in them. Dual mono software usually is used to put two different mono soundtracks, that you
can listen to together or separately, on one DVD. With this setting you can choose which dual mono setting you
want to listen to. Remember this setting is only applicable if you are using Dolby Digital software with dual
mono and want to isolate one of the channels therein.
