Some two layer discs display their own unique Video
Format Selection Menu, every time the disc is loaded into
the player. If you do not make a choice from this menu, the
disc will revert to its default Video Format when play is
started. The Format selected from this menu remains in ef-
fect as long as that disc is loaded into the player. If you
wish to change the Video Format after disc play has
started, the disc tray must be opened and closed again, with
a new selection made from the menu. If a disc is loaded,
the player must be in STOP mode before any SETUP op-
eration can occur. If the two layer disc does not have a For-
mat Menu, follow the instructions below to select the de-
sired video format for your TV.

D. Range Compression
With certain selected DVDs the Dolby Digital Sound
Tracks include an encoded signal that can reduce the dy-
namic range of the audio signals. The loudest passages are
reduced in volume, while the softer passages are increased
so they are still audible. This feature is useful for late night
listening so others aren’t disturbed.
