DVF-3500
Sample Freq. (Frequency)
If your receiver or amplifier is NOT capable of handling 96 kHz
signals, select 48 kHz. When this choice is made, this unit auto-
matically converts any 96 kHz signals to 48 kHz so your system
can decode them.
If your receiver or amplifier is capable of handling 96 kHz sig-
nals, select 96 kHz. When this choice is made, this unit passes
each type of signal through without any further processing.
Check the documentation for your amplifier to verify its capa-
bilities.
When the disc prohibits 96 kHz digital output, the signal always
is put out after down-conversion.
DRC (Dynamic Range Control)
With the DVD format, you can hear a program's soundtrack in
the most accurate and realistic presentation possible, thanks to
digital audio technology. However, you may wish to compress
the dynamic range of the audio output (the difference between
the loudest sounds and the quietest ones). This allows you to
listen to a movie at a lower volume without losing clarity of
sound. Set DRC to On for this effect.
This function operates only at the time of playback of DVDs re-
corded with Dolby Digital.
Vocal
Set to on only when a multi-channel karaoke DVD is playing.
The karaoke channels on the disc mix into normal stereo sound.
LOCK (Parental Control)
Rating
Some movies contain scenes that may not be suitable for chil-
dren to view. Many of these discs contain parental control infor-
mation that applies to the complete disc or to certain scenes on
the disc. Movies and scenes are rated from 1 to 8, depending on
the country. Some discs offer more suitable scenes as an alter-
native.
The parental control feature allows you to block access to
scenes below the rating you input, thereby preventing your
children from being able to view material you believe is unsuit-
able.

Cursor right [

you created. If you have not yet entered a pass-

Unlock
If you select unlock, parental control is not active and the disc
plays in full.
Note:
• When you set "Rating" for the first time, you set an area code
first.
• If you set a rating for the player, all disc scenes with the same
rating or lower are played. Higher rated scenes are not played
unless an alternate scene is available on the disc. The alternative
must have the same rating or a lower one. If no suitable alterna-
tive is found, playback stops. You must enter the 4-digit pass-
word or change the rating level in order to play the disc.
