Dolby Pro Logic is an active process that enhances sound
localization through the use of a high separation decoding method
providing improved spatiality and a wider listening area. The sense
of directionality is enhanced by the Left, Center, Right and Surround
channels. Dolby Pro Logic decoding is best utilized with sources
encoded in Dolby Surround.
Software encoded with Dolby Surround can be identified with this
mark (DVD, CD, Video CD, Laser Disc, Video tape).
