Dynamic Compression

Rating Control is a password protected system that allows you to

block playback of DVDs based on their content. The system uses an

eight level rating system.

• If you try to play a DVD that exceeds the selected rating, an error

message will appear.

MAIN MENU

Dynamic Compression constrains the dynamic range, i.e. the

difference between the quietest and loudest passages of a DVD

soundtrack. This enables you to limit loud noises, such as

explosions, or raise the volume of quiet passages, such as

whispering, while watching a movie. This is convenient for viewing

movies late at night.
