6.31.2.4. Dolby Surround Mode
This control enables the user to author the surround mode of the Dolby stream. This parameter indicates
to a Dolby Digital decoding product that also contains a Dolby Pro Logic decoder (for example a 5.1-
channel amplifier), whether or not the two-channel encoded bit-stream contains a Dolby Surround (Lt/Rt)
program that requires Pro Logic decoding. Decoders can use this flag to automatically switch on Pro
Logic decoding as required.
Not Indicated
There is no indication either way.
Not Dolby

6.31.2.5. Program Dialnorm Control
This control enables the user to author the
Dialnorm Level
of the Dolby bitstream. When received at the
consumer’s Dolby Digital decoder, this parameter setting determines a level shift in the decoder that sets,
or normalizes, the average audio output of the decoder to a preset level. This aids in matching audio
volume between program sources. To adjust the
Dialnorm Control
, drag the slide right to increase the
value and left to decrease the value. The
Dialnorm Control
has a value range of –1 dBFS to –31 dBFS
in increments of 1 dBFS. The default value is -27 dBFS.
6.31.2.6. Audio Production Info
This control enables the user to author the
Audio Production Information
for the Dolby bitstream. This
parameter indicates whether the mixing level and room type values are valid. If
Yes
, then a receiver or
amplifier could use these values as described below. If
No
, then the values in these fields are invalid. In
practice, only high-end consumer equipment implements these features. Use the drop down to set this
control.
Does Not Exist
Mixing Level and Room Type parameters are invalid and should be ignored.
