Activating or Deactivating Dynamic Range Control

When activated, this setting normalizes the volume of a disc's audio track. The
loudest parts of the soundtrack will be quieter, and the quietest parts will be
louder. This effect can be useful when viewing movies late at night, when others
might be sleeping.
To use this setting, your player's audio must be connected with
HDMI or Optical/SPDIF, and digital output must be set to Bitstream
Mixed or PCM.
To activate or deactivate Dynamic Range Control:
1. From the Audio menu, use the Up/
Down Arrow buttons on the remote to
highlight Dynamic Range Control and
press OK.
The Dynamic Range Control menu is
displayed.
2. Use the Arrow buttons on the remote
to highlight On, Off, or Auto and press
OK.
Selecting Auto for this setting turns on Dynamic Range Control for
all Blu-ray soundtracks except Dolby TruHD.

to choose. The player will select Stereo or Surround Encoded
automatically based on the audio source.
• Stereo - When selected, the player reduces the audio output to a left
and right channel. Select this option if your receiver does not feature
Dolby Digital or DTS decoding.

output to a left and right channel, but also sends additional simulated
surround information for your receiver to decode. Select this option if
