Dynamic Range Control (DRC)
With the DVD format, you can hear a program’s sound-
track in the most accurate and realistic presentation
possible, thanks to digital audio technology. However,
you may wish to compress the dynamic range of the
audio output (the difference between the loudest sounds
and the quietest ones). Then, you may listen to a movie
at a lower volume without losing clarity of sound. Set
DRC to On for this effect.
Vocal
Set Vocal to On only when a multi-channel karaoke
DVD is playing. The karaoke channels on the disc will
mix into normal stereo sound.
PBC
Set Playback Control (PBC) to On or Off.
On: Video CDs with PBC are played according to the PBC.
Off: Video CDs with PBC are played the same way as Audio CDs.
Auto Play
You can set up the DVD Player so a DVD disc automat-
ically starts playing whenever the DVD is inserted.
If Auto Play mode is set to On, this DVD player will
search a title where playback time is longest and then
play back the title automatically.
On: Auto Play function is activated.
Off: Auto Play function is not activated.
Note
The Auto Play function may not work for some DVDs.
B.L.E. (Black Level Expansion)
To select the black level of playback pictures. Set your
preference and monitor’s ability.
On: Expanded grey scale. (0 IRE cut off)
Off: Standard grey scale. (7.5 IRE cut off)
Pluge (Blacker than Black)
For proper adjustment of your television brightness
settings utilizing a commercially available test disc.
On: Select when you adjust the level of your TV using a
commercially available test disc that contains pluge signals.
Off: For normal use.

DNR1: Normal level
DNR2: Expanded level.
Off: Off
.
Notes
– Actual picture enhancement may vary depending on the
quality of the disc.
– While the DNR2 (expanded level) can provide additional
improvement in the reduction of noise in the video signal, it
may produce undesirable picture artifacts on some discs.
Should this occur, select a more appropriate DNR level (nor-
mal or off).
– Depending on the disc, some picture detail may be lost by
the picture enhancement.
– A DVD audio disc with Dolby Digital or DTS soundtrack may
be played, some DVD audio discs include moving pictures
which may be modified by the above processes.
