Dynamic range control (DRC)
DRC data is not transmitted by all broadcasters.
DRC is used for controlling difference between
the loudest and quietest sounds. e.g., in a noisy
environment, setting the DRC to maximum makes
quiet sounds comparatively louder, and loud
sounds quieter.
There are 3 levels of compression:
•
DRC off - no compression. This is the default
setting.
•
DRC low - medium compression
•
DRC high - maximum compression
