PCM Down Conversion : Pulse Code Modulation

PCM is the standard method used to record digital music signals on audio CDs.

DVD-Videos can be produced using the linear PCM method which is based on a

sampling frequency of up to 96 kHz.

Select "Yes" if an optical digital audio cable is used to connect your player to an

amplifier that only processes sampling frequencies of up to 48 kHz.

For reasons of copyright protection, the digital output of PCM audio signals may be

limited to 48 kHz/16 bit.

Dynamic Range Compression :

Available in the Dolby Digital ( DVD ) format only.

This function compresses the volume range by putting up the level of soft passages

and lowering the level of loud passages, e.g. to turn down the overall volume late at

night.

This option allows you to say whether or not the volume range is to be compressed.
