  • Mono uses one signal for sound. The quality of sound is generally lower with this setting.
  • Stereo uses multiple signals for sound. The quality of sound with this setting is higher than Mono.
  • Surround Sound is used if you have surround sound equipment.
Digital OutputDigital Output is used to enable sound through an optical jack.
  • Pulse Code Modulated converts analog audio signals into digital audio signals.
  • Dolby Digital (AC3) is used for Dolby digital sounds available on certain digital broadcasts and streaming video.
Dynamic RangeDynamic Range is the difference between the quietest and loudest volume in a stream. In modern recording, this range is often limited through dynamic range compression, which allows for louder volume, but can make the recording sound less exciting or live.
  • Narrow dramatically lowers the higher volumes
  • Medium slightly lowers the higher volumes
  • Wide plays the entire audio dynamic range, including and highest and lowest sounds

    Note: Wide offers the greatest variance and higher quality of sound but a possible lower volume setting.
Audio LanguageAudio Language selects the audio language for programs that carry both the primary language and Secondary Audio Programming (SAP).
  • Primary will always use the primary language.
  • Alternate (SAP) will use the SAP when available.
