For your
reference:
• Dolby Digital is a digital sound compression
technique
developed
by the Dolby Laboratories
Licensing
Corporation.
Supporting
6.1-channel
surround
sound, as well as stereo (2-channel)
sound, this technique
enables a large quantity
of sound data to be efficiently
recorded
on a disc.
• Linear PCM is a signal recording
format used in CDs. While CDs are recorded in 44.1 kHz/16 bit,
DVDs are recorded
in 48 kHz/16 bit up to 96 kHz/24 bit.
• If you have a Dolby Pro Logic Surround decoder, you will obtain the full benefit of Pro Logic from
the same DVD movies that provide full 5.1 channel
Dolby Digital soundtracks,
as well as from
titles with the Dolby Surround
mark. For information
on Panasonic
or Technics Dolby Pro Logic
Surround
Sound Decoders
please contact
your local dealer.
