Advanced Audio/Video Settings Screen
The Advanced Audio/Video Settings menu customizes several advanced audio and video features of
the DCX3520e-M, most notably the Dolby Volume feature and the Video Sharpness feature.
The Dolby Volume feature provides volume normalization across channels, programs, and commercials.
Normalization is a process where the different volume levels across channels, programs, and
commercials are adjusted to the same approximate output volume. As a result, sudden volume changes
are reduced and the overall volume output of the DCX3520e-M is more consistent.
The Video Sharpness feature softens or sharpens Standard Definition (SD) programs when viewed on
either the HDMI or Component Video (YPbPr) outputs. When SD programs are viewed on a large screen
television, picture quality can suffer because noise and other imperfections in the picture can be
magnified on the large display. The Video Sharpness feature can be used to soften the picture and
reduce the appearance of these imperfections.
