Using the Transcoder
Advanced Transcoder Controls
Clicking on
the Advanced down arrow
(7-2A) expands the Advanced menu for the transcoder.
As in the basic transcoder menu, certain settings will be grayed out if they are not applicable to the currently
selected workflow. Specifically:
♦
When the “DD+ Atmos Transcoding” workflow is active, the “ED2 Frame Rate” control is grayed out
♦
When the “ED2 Encoding” workflow is selected, all advanced controls
except
the “ED2 Frame Rate” are
grayed out
♦
When the “ED2 Decoding” workflow is active, all advanced controls are grayed out

The dynamic range compression profiles for
Line Mode
(7-2B) and
RF Mode
(7-2C) are independently select-
able and include Film Standard (the default mode), Film Light, Music Standard, Music Light, and Speech.
The
Dolby Surround Mode
(7-2D) identifies to the decoder that a 2-channel output is either PCM stereo (“Not
Encoded”) or matrix surround-encoded (“Encoded”). If it is not necessary to indicate the mode at all, select “Not
Indicated”.
