Configuring the DPC-7.7—Continued
Video Black Level
With this setting you can adjust the picture blackness of
analog video output. It does not affect the component
video output when it’s set to progressive.
Light: Blacks are lighter, and the entire picture
becomes lighter.
Dark: Blacks are darker, and the entire picture
becomes darker.
Brightness
With this setting you can adjust the picture brightness.
Level 1-7: 1 is the darkest. 7 is the brightest. The
default brightness is 4 (standard).
Sharpness
With this setting you can adjust the picture sharpness.
Level 1-7: 1 is the softest. 7 is the sharpest. The
default sharpness is 4 (standard).
Digital/HDMI Audio Out
With this setting you can configure the optical, coaxial,
and HDMI digital outputs.
All: Dolby Digital and DTS signals are output as
they are.
PCM: Dolby Digital signals are down mixed to 2
channels and output as PCM.
Off: No digital signals are output.
Linear PCM Out
With this setting you can configure the DPC-7.7 to out-
put digital audio with higher sampling rates (e.g.,
96 kHz) as it is or down sample it to 48 kHz.
If the AV component you connect to the DPC-7.7’s digi-
tal audio outputs supports 96 kHz digital audio, select
Down Sample Off. Otherwise, select Down Sample On.
Down Sample On: 96 kHz digital audio is down
sampled and output at 48 kHz.
Down Sample Off (default): 96 kHz digital audio is
output as it is.
Notes:
• Some copy-protected DVD-Video discs may use
96 kHz digital audio only for A/D conversion to the
analog audio outputs.
•With some discs, even if you select Down Sample Off,
the digital audio will be down sampled to 48 kHz, and
in some cases may not be output by the DPC-7.7’s dig-
ital audio outputs.
Dynamic Range Control (Dolby Digital
only)
With the Dynamic Range Control function you can
reduce the dynamic range of Dolby Digital material so
that you can still hear quiet parts even when listening at
low volume levels—ideal for watching movies late at
night when you don’t want to disturb anyone.
Off (default): The full dynamic range is preserved.
On: The dynamic range of Dolby Digital material is
compressed.
Notes:
• The impact of the Dynamic Range Control function
depends on the Dolby Digital material that you are
playing and with some material there will be little or
no effect.
• When the DPC-7.7 is set to Standby, this function is
automatically set to off.
