Audio Settings
Figure 4
The Audio Setting Submenu contains the
following settings. Follow the explanations in the
Upper Menu Line on the bottom of your screen
to change the settings.
Preferred Audio Language:
Defines your
preferred audio language. Every time a disc is
played that contains this audio language, it will
be activated automatically. If you do not find
your preferred language in the list of options, you
can select your preferred language by selecting
OTHER, and than typing a 4-digit code found in
the code list on page 42.
Dynamic Range:
This setting allows you to take
advantage of the programming present on some
Dolby Digital recordings to reduce the volume of
louder passages while maintaining intelligibility
of quieter passages. This means that you may
listen to programs at a level that allows the full
impact of a soundtrack to be heard at a volume
that is lower than you might otherwise use to
avoid disturbing others. The Digital Lounge
accomplishes this by compressing the audio to a
greater or lesser degree, depending on which
setting you choose. Three options are available:
•
MINIMUM
does not make any changes to
the original playback, and should be used
when the volume setting in the listening room
may be as loud as you desire.
•
MEDIUM
applies a moderate amount of
compression so that louder passages are a
little bit quieter.
•
MAXIMUM
applies more compression so that
louder passages are much softer.
Feel free to experiment with the settings at any
time.
Tone Control:
Activates or De-acti va tes the
Bass and Treble settings. Once either the Bass or
Treble Settings are changed, the Tone Control
automati cally switches to ON.
Bass Level:
Sets the level of low frequencies.
Treble Level:
Sets the level of high frequencies.
DVD Sound Mode:
Sets the audio format of
the DVD-disc playing (for other sources, see
Surround Mode in each respective chapter).
Once set to stereo, every surround format on a
DVD will be converted to a pure stereo signal.
Once set to any of the Dolby Virtual Speaker
modes, all stereo signals on a DVD are forced
any of the Dolby Virtual Speaker modes into
virtual surround for surround playback with
only two loudspeakers.
Audio Adjustment
Figure 5
The Audio Adjustment Submenu contains the
access to the output level adjustment settings of
the Digital Lounge. Follow the explanations in
the Upper Menu Line on the bottom of your
screento make adjustments.
Output level adjustment
The default settings of the DVD player is 0 dB for
front speakers and subwoofer. If you wish to alter
the balance between left and right speaker, you
can do this by increasing level to one channel or
decreasing it to the other channel, or both.
Adjust the subwoofer level until the subwoofer
blends in well with the main speakers.
The level can be adjusted by pressing ENTER and
selecting an appropriate level indicated in the
Lower Menu Line.
Once all Audio Adjustment Settings have been
set to your personal taste, move the cursor to the
left until VIDEO SETTINGS is highlighted. Press

Video Settings
Figure 6
The Video Setting Submenu contains the follow-
ing settings. Follow the explanations in the Upper
Menu Line on the bottom of your screen to
change the settings.
Aspect Ratio:
This option is not used in the DL
232/DL 240.
TV Standard:
Select PAL (Europe), NTSC (USA)
or Automatic (recommended setting). This option
is relevant only if you wish to use the DL DVD
receiver with another screen than the one includ-
ed, and only if this screen utilizes another stan-
dard.
Video Mode:
In most cases, the “automatic”
mode is your best choice, as it senses whether
the disc being played was originally recorded on
video or shot on film. However, in some cases
you may wish to compensate for errors in the
disc authoring that occur when the lag for the
film mode detection is not properly set when
films are converted to video.
•
Auto:
This is the recommended setting, as it
lets the DVD player analyze the signals from
the DVD and adjust the output accordingly.
•
Movie:
Choose this option for optimal play-
back of material that was shot on film, even
though you are viewing it on video via a DVD.
•
Video:
Choose this option for optimal play-
back of material that was shot directly to
video, such as concerts and sports program-
ming.
