About
DRC
(Dynamic Range Compression)
With the DVD format
you
have the
opportunity
to hear a
program's
soundtrack in the most accurate and realistic
presentation possible,
thanks to the use of
digital
audio
technology.
However,
in certain instances
you may
wish
to
slightly compress
the
dynamic range
of the audio out-
put
(the
difference between the loudest sounds and the
quietest
ones)
so that
you may
listen to a movie at a lower
volume without
losing dialogue intelligibility.
