    Dynamic Range Control (DRC)
    With the DVD*
    1format, you can hear a program’s
    soundtrack in the most accurate and realistic
    presentation, 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). Then, you may
    listen to a movie at a lower volume without losing
    clarity of sound. Set DRC to On for this effect.
    *1: Dolby Digital only
    Vocal
    Set Vocal to On only when a multi-channel karaoke
    DVD is playing. The karaoke channels on the disc will
    mix into normal stereo sound.
    HD AV Sync 
    When using Digital TV. 
    Sometimes AV signal could not be transmitted
    simultaneously because of later transmission of video
    signal compared to audio signal. 
    Because it takes some time to convert analog video
    signal to digital one in the Digital TV. 
    And It means that you may not enjoy picture on the
    screen and sound from speaker at the same time
    even though it is one scene.
    In the HD AV Sync menu, you could adjust delay time
    to audio signal for simultaneous AV signal
    transmission
     Delay time could be set up with 10msec unit. 
    (0 ~ 300ms)
     Delay time is different according to each TV Brand.
    So you need to adjust optimal delay time complying
    with your TV.

    RDS Operation
    This unit is equipped with RDS (Radio Data System),
    which brings a wide range of information to FM radio.
    RDS, now being used in many countries, is a system
    for transmitting station call signs or network
    information, a description of station programme type
    text message about the station or specifics of musical
    selection and the correct time. 
    RDS TUNING
    When a FM station is tuned in and it contains RDS
    data, the unit will automatically display the station’s
    call sign and the RDS indicator will light in the Display
    Window as well as indicators for the RDS services
    programme (PS), programme type recognition (PTY),
    Radio text (RT) and Clock Time (CT) if transmitted by
    the station.
    RDS DISPLAY OPTIONS
    The RDS system is capable of transmitting a wide
    variety of information in addition to the initial call sign
    that appears when a station is first tuned. In normal
    RDS operation the display will indicate the station
    name, broadcast network or call letters. Pressing RDS
    on the remote control enables you to cycle through
    the various data types in the sequence:
    (PS ↔ ↔
    FREQUENCY↔ ↔
    PTY↔ ↔
    RT ↔ ↔
    CT)
     PS (Programme Service  name)-The name of the
    channel is shown in the Display Window.
     PTY (Programme type recognition)-The name of
    the programme type is shown in the Display
    Window.
     RT (Radiotext)-A “text” message contains special
    information from the broadcast station. Note that
    this message may scroll across the display to
    permit message.
     CT (Time controlled by the channel)-Enables
    the unit to receive the actual time and show it in
    the Display Window.
    Note:
    Some RDS stations may not choose to include some
    of these additional features. If the data required for
    the selected mode is not being transmitted, the
    Display Window will show a PTY NONE, RT NONE,
    CT NONE, or PS NONE message.

    Programme Search (PTY)
    A major benefit of RDS is its ability to encode
    broadcasts with Programme Type (PTY) codes that
    indicate the type of material being broadcast. The
    following list shows the abbreviations used to
    indicate each PTY along with an explanation of the
    PTY.

    3. Press PTY repeatedly to select a desired PTY.
    4. When the PTY is selected, press TUN.(-/+).
