  DTS

DTS

®

 stands for Digital Theater System. DTS

®

 Digital 

Surround is an encoded/decoded system, which 
delivers 5.1 channels of “master quality” 48KHz/20-bit 
audio sound. 

l

  Dolby

A sound system developed by Dolby Laboratories, Inc. 
that gives movie theatre ambience to audio output 
when player is connected to a Dolby Digital 5.1 
channel processor or amplifier. 

l

  MPEG 

The word “MPEG” is short for Moving Picture Experts 
Group. This is an international standard for 
compression of audio. MPEG1 used on VCDs 
conforms to up to 2-channel stereo. MPEG 2 used on 
DVDs conforms to up to 7.1-channel surround. By 
connecting to an MPEG decoder or an AV amplifier 
with a built-in MPEG decoder, the MPEG audio of DVD 
discs recorded in this format can be played. 

l

  Dynamic Range 

“Dynamic range” is the difference between the 
maximum level and the minimum level of sounds. 
Sounds on a movie originally designed for movie 
theaters feature a very wide dynamic range, so 
sometimes it is not suitable for home use. Depending 
on the condition of your listening environment, 
Dynamic Range function can reduce the instant sound 
effect alteration of the movie while playing back. When 
viewing movies at night, turn this function on to avoid 
sudden loud sounds from disturbing your neighbors.  

l

 

 

Subtitles are captions of language superimposed on 
movies, etc. Up to 32 different subtitle languages can 
be recorded on one DVD disc. The subtitle function 
can be used to select the language of your choice.

 

l

  Closed Caption 

Closed Caption (CC) is a standardized method of 
encoding text into an NTSC television signal. A TV can 
display the text with a built-in decoder or by a separate 
decoder. All TVs larger than 13 inches sold in the US 
since 1993 have Closed Caption decoders.  Closed 
Captions can be carried on DVD, videotape, 
broadcast TV, cable TV, and so on.
