Surround Mode
dolby pro logic IIx this mode is similar to dolby pro logic II movie, with an added surround back
music channel.
dolby pro logic IIx this mode is similar to dolby pro logic II music, including the availability of center
music width, dimension and panorama adjustments. dolby pro logic IIx music adds a
surround back channel.
dolby pro logic IIx this mode is similar to dolby pro logic II game, with the added benefit of a surround
game back channel.
dolby pro logic IIz An expansion of dolby pro logic II that adds left and right front height channels that
are played through two front height speakers mounted above and outside of the front
left and right speakers.
hArmAn virtual Simulates 5.1 channels when only two speakers are present or a more enveloping
speaker sound field is desired.
dtS digital using a different encoding/decoding method than dolby digital,
dtS digital also provides up to five discrete main channels, plus an
lfe channel.
dtS-hd dtS-hd is a new high-definition audio format that complements the high-definition
video found on blu-ray disc and hd-dvd discs. It is transmitted using a dtS core
with high-resolution extensions. even when only dtS 5.1 surround sound is desired
(or available, if the multizone system is in use), the higher capacity of high-resolution
discs serves up dtS at twice the bit rate used on dvd-video discs.
dtS-hd master Audio dtS-hd master Audio technology delivers bit-for-bit reproductions of the studio
master recording in up to 7.1 channels for an incredibly accurate performance.
dtS-eS matrix dtS extended Surround adds a single surround back channel to dtS 5.1 digital
surround sound. the matrix version includes the surround back channel information
"matrixed" into the left and right (side) surround channels for compatibility with
5.1-channel systems.
dtS-eS discrete dtS-eS discrete is another extended Surround mode that adds a surround back
channel, but this information is encoded discretely on the disc and is not derived
from information contained in the surround channels.
dtS Stereo delivers a two-channel downmix of dtS digital materials or presents a matrix-
encoded surround presentation.
