For your reference:
• Dolby Digital is a digital sound compression
technique
developed
by the Dotby Laboratories
Licensing Corporation.
Supporting 5.1-channel
surround
sound, as welt 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.
• tf you have a Dotby Pro Logic Surround decoder,
you wilt obtain the fult benefit of Pro Logic from
the same DVD movies that provide full 5.1

Surround Sound Decoders please contact your
